Eric,   I've seen this message too many times.   We also have 5 years of
invoices.   The subset function is awful.    It looks at every record in the
file instead of using an index.   It returns invoices with the oldest one
first.  Who wants a 5 year old invoice?  What we want is the last 5 or 10.
We have to roll 20 to 30 times to get to the recent ones.
It is so bad that I go to Inquiry - orders - historical orders - then subset
--- then display invoices ---- write down some invoice numbers --- return to
the reprint invoice screens and bring up a specific invoice by number.

[ Converted text/html to text/plain ]

To the list,

I know there was discussion recently about reprinting invoices but I have
not
seen this next question come up.  Has anyone tried to use the F17=Subset
function with Reprint.  When I use it in Release 5.5 and 6, we get a blank
screen with the message at the bottom with something like "Scroll forward to
find additional records".  My customer has over 375,000 records in the file
(about 5 years) and the Invoice Date being subsetted has over 300 invoices.

Thanks...

Eric A. Wolf
