Neither File Menu - Print, or script functions Print or Print Set Up
give 'current record' options for printing. Lets refine the problem to
writing a script. How can I make sure the printed record is the record
being viewed? Now, I perform a 'Find' on a particular of the record,
hopefully giving me a found set of 1. Then I print, From Page 1 to
Page 1. But this all seems very sloppy and hardly what Filemaker is
about.
Thanks
