A simple question:

	To output our SQL reports to a printer we
		SPOOL name
		(execute our SELECT)
		SPOOL OUT

	We want new page at our control breaks.

	I'm typing
		BREAK ON colname SKIP PAGE
		NEWPAGE 0

	Question is: is this a proper way to do it.

	I ask the question because the Form Feeds are not working
	when we output to a Laser printer, though doing the same thing
	to a Dot Matrix works OK. I do not think it's an Oracle
	problem - but I'm not 100% sure of the above apporach.

Thanks in advance.
