HI

I am using Reports6i.
I have a character report.
When I Print It I wish to Print Certain LInes in BOLD.
For the Same I have added the following code in my .prt file.
------------------------------------------------------
FILE NAME : wide180.prt
CONTENTS :
printer "wide180"

height 66
width 180

after page control(L)

return control(M)

code "bold on" "BOLD"
code "bold off" "NORMAL"
------------------------------------------------------

In reports DESFORMAT I have specified the wide180.prt value also.
I have also added the code as &BOLD in my printer code Before Property and &NORMAL in my Printer Code After property.

However when I print the Report it prints say like this

BOLDMY TEXT FOR BOLDER PRINTINGNORMAL

What is wrong with what I have done.
is there any other way out.
I have Windows XP OS and Printer is Epson Stylus - LQ2170

Thks in Advance
Atul P

hai,
Just try out this code.And select the fields you want to be printed in bold and set the font properties as "BOLD".
In DESFORMAT specify the pritner file as "Wide180".
And no need to add the code as &BOLD in my printer code.
hope this helps u out.
-------------------------------------------------
printer "wide180"

height 66
width 180

before report control(O)
after page control(L)
after report control(R)
return control(M)
linefeed control(J)

code "bold on" esc "W1"
code "bold off" esc "W0"
hilight overstrike
