saving paper, saving trees. but some did not like saving paper!

On a humorous but sincerely serious note, we discovered one feature of our upgrade of World Writer to the year 2003.
If no detail records are found, World Writer saves paper and does not print even one page of header title and columns.

Evidently many customers were upset with this enhancement to save paper, so cumulative release 15 (circa 2006), the header page will again print.
But we are not ready to upgrade that far!

Done
No Report when No Records
If no records match the criteria for the World Writer report, you will receive a joblog stating that there were no records found but will not receive a no report.

To fix this issue you will need to download Update 7487405


After applying the SAR 6942015, we no longer get a report when there are no records matching the criteria for the World Writer report. Is this a new feature?
