Why are you using a EXCEPT for an externally described print file? EXCEPT
is for internal defined print files.

Don't you want a Write?

In conjunction with the other issue, I'm having a problem with a new
printer file.

There is a detail record format in the PRTF, which compiles just fine.
Actually everything works great except when I try to use the following
line:

Except Detail;

The only point I'll make about the PRTF file is that the header is using
the POSITION keyword and the detail obviously is not. I don't think that
would be the problem, but maybe it is.

Here is the detail format
0017.09 A VCODE 12A 06SPACEA(1)
0017.10 A ICODE 12A 06
0017.11 A IDESC 20A 20
0017.12 A IQTY 3 0 48
0017.13 A IUNIT 6 2 54EDTCDE(1)
0017.14 A ILINTOT 8 2 66EDTCDE(1) SPACEA(2)

If you can see where I made a mistake, feel free to take a 2x4 and club me
over the head.
