Editing the PRINT/REPORT Command

You can edit the PRINT/REPORT command's options in its Output Configuration dialog box.

1. Place the cursor over the PRINT/REPORT command line.

2. Press F9.

3. Make any changes.

4. Click OK.

PC-DMIS updates the command to match your change. You may not always see a visual indication in the command text itself of the change.

Understanding the Different Output Configuration Dialog Boxes

Note that PC-DMIS uses the Output Configuration dialog box in these locations:

From File | Printing | Report Window Print Setup

The main Output Configuration dialog box from that menu does not insert or modify the PRINT/REPORT command. Instead, it controls the overall printing defaults for the report. Unlike the PRINT/REPORT command, the main dialog box only affects printing when the measurement routine has completed execution. For information on the options in this dialog box, see "Printing the Report Window" in the "Using Basic File Options" chapter.

For Each PRINT/REPORT Command

When you press F9 on one of these commands, its specific Output Configuration dialog box opens.

• You can use the PRINT/REPORT command more than once in the measurement routine.

• Each PRINT/REPORT commands can have different outputs.

• Each PRINT/REPORT command is a unique instance of the information contained in the main Output Configuration dialog box. Therefore, options that are selected from the main dialog box are independent of any PRINT/REPORT command.
