I still am not able to print properly from the Project Extract window. I
check all the Header info, add Page breaks, and add blanks between entries.
When I print with these things checked, the page breaks do not work and
there are no blanks between lines. If I save to a file and open it in
Wordpad, everything looks okay. This has never worked right for me. I always
have to output it to a file before printing to retain the requested format.
Is there a way of setting the default text editor used to generate this
document so that it will print in the format requested? I would like to save
the extra steps that I have to go through each time I create a BOM.
TIA,
Robert Hanrahan

I don't think that we have ever been able to print from the Project extract window either. We include the BOM as part of the drawing set so the reoprts are put on drawings. But if we want to print a Purchase Req, we have always had to save to an ASCII file then print. On th up side, we do have a copy of this report if it is needed for further reference. This has been a long-time problem that goes back to Toolbox/WD.

I also have never been able to do this and I have been using it since 1997.
