Hi,
The function key [print] by the key trigger "key-print" in Forms 3.0 writes
the current screen to a file and asks if you want to print it. (in character mode) like the following window:

---

| |
| OUTPUT FILE :
| SPOOL_RACINE:[SCREEN_LIS]TOTO.LIS
| [ ] OUTPUT ON PRINTER
| [ ] PRINT THE KEY CONFIGURATION

---

But, in forms 4.5, i have this :

        OUTPUT FILE : SAVE FILE AS:
DIRECTORY: DISK$USER:[TOTO]

DIRECTORIES:                    FILES:
-------------------             ------------------


|                  |            | File1.lis;1     |

|                  |            | File2.lis;1     |

|                  |            | etc...          |

|                  |            |                 |

|                  |            |                 |


|                  |            |                 |


-------------------             ------------------

(OK)                                      (CANCEL)
