Hi Peter,

thanks!

On Wednesday, from SF2, I printed several reports from SAP R/3 to the printer.

Tests included SAP R/3 standard reports and MIT developed reports (potrait
and landscape).

Several observations...
          **  IPM title page is included
          **  the SAP R/3 title page is present for R/3 delivered reports 
          **  the SAP R/3 title page is supressed on MIT developed reports
          **  trailing "end of output for:" page is included for all reports

I have a concern over the SAP R/3 4-character short name.  It is true SAP
R/3 allows for longer names.  However, it still requires a 4-character
shortname, too.  We need to decide how to manage this requirement.  On the
MIT developed reports, it appears that the "shortname" is being displayed
for confirmation; this is a tad confusing since you selected a more
descriptive name.  (Example:  retipm's shortname is reti  while  retipm2's
required a different short name, so, retj was assigned for this test.)  

Thanks,
Theresa
