Re: Overlays again

I do not see that BPCS is involved in this question.

I too am rather ignorant when it comes to what can be done with Excel.

Hello everyone,

I am back with another question on overlays.

We recently changed printers in our Finance Office from an HP LaserJet
2100 and replaced it with an IBM InfoPrint 21.

We have an EXCEL spreadsheet that we use for our form for Invoices.  I
have changed the spreadsheet to remove 1 line in the body of it.  I then
printed it to an AFP 300 virtual printer, with Medium Overlay checked in
the Properties.  I then put the '.PRN' file into my QDLS folder.  After
that I did a CPYFRMPCD from my QDLS Folder into a file on my AS/400.  I
used a record length of 32766, and also tried with a record length of
8201.  I then created my Overlay.  When I print my Invoice, the overlay is
2 spaces too far to the right.  It used to be centered.

I tried using an AFP 240 and 600 Virtual Printer, but I get an error
message during the creation of the Overlay on the 400, CPD88C0 with a code
of 02.

I have tried changing the spreadsheet to print CENTER, but that made it
worse.  Also, the spreadsheet starts in Column A, so I can't just remove a
couple of columns on the left.

Any thoughts on how I can get the dumb thing centered again.


Thanx,

Nick
