Grid Print Dialog

Howdy,

One of my users has asked me what the defaults of the Print Grid Dialog mean
- and if there is a way to modify the default from "Use Maximum Data" to
"Print Current Page".

Within an application that has a grid - select the grid, right click, select
Grid -> then print... and you will see the Grid Print Dialog.

Where would we modify the default from "Print Max Data" - and, more
importantly... why / why not?

Thanks!

Hi Daniel,
You should be happy if it is the most signficant problem of your customer. Is it the first, last or sole problem there? :)))

I didn't find any entry for it in the jde.ini file. Maybe you have to patch something under b7/system/bin32 folder? :)))

Have you already advised to your customer to use the Grid/Export on the same pop-up menu?
...OR...
...to use the PrintScreen button on the keyboard? :)))

I envy you your satisfied customers.

Zoltan,

If this was the ONLY issue my customer(s) had... I'd be pleased... Actually, they are fairly nice to work with (gotta say that - some of them are on the list).

They know how to export to Excel - and do it often. We just wanted to head off the issue where a newby prints off the entire Address Book Grid...

Thanks for your support - and admiration!

Daniel,

my understanding is that the Grid Print "Use Maximum Data" option only prints data that thus far has been pulled down to the workstation. If the user did a find (with no filters) and then did a grid print - Use Maximum Data - There would only be a little more than the current screen of data printed. If the user scrolls down to the very end - all data pulled down - then did a grid print everything would be printed.

FWIW,
