A couple of questions about Reports 2.5:

  1. Is it possible to programatically specify the paper tray (printer bin) - either within reports or as a command line argument? What about printing different pages of the same report to different bins? For example, when generating an invoice print run, the requirement might be to print the first page of each invoice on letter head, and the subsequent pages on plain paper.
  2. When passing a parameter list to a report from Forms 4.5 via RUN_PRODUCT, and the parameter list contains a string parameter which contains a single quote, the report does not run. Remove the quote from the parameter and the report runs. Is there a way to pass strings with quotes to reports?
