- I am looking for a general routine to print any given simple form to a
- file or printer. Call a simple form, a form that has a set of simple
- fields on the top part of the form and bolow them (possibly) a table field.
- The form could be of arbitrary width and height. What I want is a routine
- that would get the position and size of all the fields, titles, trim, etc.
- and print them spaced as they are on the form. The routine would then
- unload ALL the data in the table field and print it as it appears in the
- columns on the form.
-
- The current print routines provided by ingres only print the visible
- rows in a table field. If I get no replies I plan to write such a
- generic print form in embedded C.
