Moving from running RM/COBOL under Unix to running the latest version running under Windows. We need a simple way for a user to do a screen print (not cut and paste into Word - just hit a button). Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you
 
You could try capturing the screen image with the "C$SCRD" sub-routine. Check the Users Guide for info on this RM supplied subroutine. I am not sure that it will capture any graphics.

If you are using RM/Cobol v. 8.0, there is a whole new set of supplied subroutines specifically for controlling Windows printing. I don't write for a Windows env so I can't tell you more than that, other than, check out appendix E in the Users Guide.
