Greetings,

I have "transferred" the passthrough printer from plunder to pillage.
There is some good news and some less than good news.

The good news first.  IT WORKS.
the next bit of good news is that the page counts are accurate.  A 3 page 
email reports 4 pages.  Now wait a minute ......I said it was 
accurate...and it is, the accounting counts the header page. so if we 
switch over the accounting will be accurate.
The header page is also good news, with a small bit of work.
There is both a header and a trailer page :-)
There is lots more information :-)
The building and room is not allowed in the pdpr command still :-(
So the filter still needs the tweak to read the database, but the twist is 
I am not sure how to get the information onto the header page.

Rocklyn can I fax you a copy of a header page?

So overall good news and a huge win with a little coding.

I am headed back to w91 now.

See you in a bit.

Lynne
