Re: Printing a report while program is active

 1 - Keyword on the printer F-spec of UserOpn.  Open the printer file when
you press the function key, print the report, and close the printer file
when the report is finished. 
 2- write the report program as a callable program.
 
There's 2.

Subject: Printing a report while program is active
 
I have a program which uses a function key to generate a report based on 
some selection criteria but the report won't print until I exit the 
program.
 
Is there a way to 'force' the spool file to close and print without 
exiting
 
Thanks
