I have some programming that prints my Customer information form.  The top of the form looks like this:
http://www.jamiara.com/cust-form-top.jpg.
The design of the form sets the visibility of the Lookup element, the yellow button, and the red button to "Only when not printed", and that works fine.  The visibility of the static text "Customer Listing" is set to Visible (true).  HOWEVER, this text does not print on my printout and I have no idea why.  Is there something special about static text elements that would cause them not to print?

Also, I have found that the show_dialog settings are reversed.  That is, when I specify PRINT_NO_DIALOG, the dialog box pops up, and when I specify PRINT_WITH_DIALOG the dialog does not appear.  I have examined the sbasic_include.sbas file and see that the #define numbers do not agree with those listed in the manual, nor do the ones for PRINT_NO_BACKGROUND and PRINT_WITH_BACKGROUND, though I have not tested these.  Is this just my local file or does the distributed sbasic_include.sbas file need to be corrected?

Update:  Search shows that we discussed this last April.  I fixed mine then, but when I downloaded the sbas file again last June the errors carried through again.  The sbas file needs to be corrected.

Hey Scott,

What happens when you print white text with a black background without the black background on a piece of white paper?

Ben is writing up the change needed to the INI file as we speak. It appears the Sbas file got reverted to an older one after this was fixed back in April.

Because at least in the 2.0.3 Distro's that I checked the lines are as follows

#define PRINT_NO_DIALOG			1
#define PRINT_WITH_DIALOG		0
#define PRINT_NO_BACKGROUND		1
#define PRINT_WITH_BACKGROUND		0 

But they should be

#define PRINT_NO_DIALOG			0
#define PRINT_WITH_DIALOG		1
#define PRINT_NO_BACKGROUND		0
#define PRINT_WITH_BACKGROUND		1

Now it's my turn to go D'OH! I think I need to go get a pot or two of coffee.
