Report trailer

[Chris Kelleher]

Has anyone out there figured out a way to turn off the selection
criteria "Trailer" page that prints on all reports.

I called QAD on this and they suggested that I go to there
"Customization Course". This is not the answer I was seeking!

George:
From my experience with Mfg/Pro so far it is an include "mfrtrail.i" in most
if not all of the reports. You will need access to source to change it. Also
there is another include "mfreset.i" which resets the terminal screen within
the "mfrtrail.i". Unless there is a magic button that says ignore this
somewhere or someone with more time with Mfg/Pro has found a work around?

Hi,

I would NEVER turn off the trailer page. Many many times the only way to
figure out a perceived problem is to be
albe to see exactly what the selections for a report were. We have a
standing rule that any questions about report MUST be accompanied by the
trailer page before we start work on trying to solve problems.

This magic is done in an include file, the name of which I THINK is
'mfrtrail.i'.

Once you edit this file (removing 'view frame a'), you have to recompile all
report programs.
