I probably should have been more specific. Will it also repeat column headers on consecutive pages in MS/IE, or still just Gecko based browsers?


It will optionally repeat column headers in both Gecko based browsers (Netscape, Firefox, Mozilla, etc...) and in IE.

Also, based on your response, are "group" headers the same as "column"  headers? If so, is it more accurate to use the term "group headers" instead of "column headers" even though they're actually column headers? Not being critical, just want to be sure we're talking about the same thing.


Column headers are a type of group header.

Thanks Mark. Good news. Can't wait to see some multi-page IE examples.

Thanks Mark for the info re rendering and printing options.  I think I have enough info there to work with some various solutions. 

Can you provide examples here for using SESAME_PRINT_COMMAND and SESAME_PRINT_PREVIEW_COMMAND ? 

And could you please also add samples to the documentation.

Thanks again for the help.

Do you want examples illustrating how to set an environment variable, or examples of what commands one can set these two to?

I don't get very involved in the documentation. Send a note off to Alec, Tom, or Jay.

Setting the variables is not an issue.

"examples of what commands one can set these two to" is what I am interested in.

What is the default value?
What values can be used?  With what rersults?

Thanks.....

There is no default value. If the variable is not set, Sesame will use the commands for the file's extension's print association.

Any value can be used, but ordinarily you'd want to set the preview env var to a browser and the print env var to a HTML print renderer. For example, if you want to use MSWord, but your keep association for .htm in Netscape, you can set the SESAME_PRINT_PREVIEW_COMMAND to:
Code
Select All
\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\WinWord.exe %s
 



(You may need some double quotes to deal with the spaces in the path, or you can put the office path in your system's command path)

The "%s" is a place holder for the report's filename and must appear once and only once.
