    1. COActually, I believe the printer is auto-generated on the first dw.SaveAs(), but sometimes it chokes on permission-constrained environments (hence the advice about running as admin). Having an installer do the printer creation could be prudent, if you're up to it. And to drive home the point of the "Just do" paragraph, you need to do **nothing more than the SaveAs() in most cases. The commands to customize the DW's PDF generation options are more likely to cause you problems.

    2. COA PDF alright but the datawindow format is not properly maintained. The lines drawn in the datawindow do not appear and hence the formatting looks bad. If any image was placed in the datawindow that also do not come in the PDF. Frankly I have not been able to use this as a method of PDF generation ever. I had asked my clients who need PDF to install PrimoPDF and print to it instead manually as I have not been able to control an automatic PDF creation of a datawindow using PrimoPDF as it launches a window that asks various details from the user and then saves the PDF.

    3. CO@somnath I haven't run into similar problems, nor have I heard of anyone complaining about this problem in the newsgroups. I have little doubt that there are difficulties integrating two products from different vendors, and your advice to be aware of options is good. However, my expectation (from experience and from other users) is that as far as image fidelity goes, the PB/GhostScript option is pretty adequate for most. In fact, at the moment, it's too much so: it's rendering background gradients wonderfully, and I don't want them there for the print! (Need to Modify() them off for the print)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
