How to send TP 3.0 writeln statements to the printer. Why not try Ctrl-PrtScr? This will send all the screen output to the printer until another Cntrl-PrtScr is pressed. It's not as fancy as using redirection like TP 4.0/5.0/5.5 allows, but its quick, easy, requires no code re-writes, and requires minimal keystrokes. :-) As for doing homework on the net... I don't see whats wrong about for advice on the net, other than direct requests for source code. To find new ideas or approaches to a subject, programming or otherwise, is what college *should* encourage. If the teacher cannot provide the necessary guidence because he's overworked, doesn't care, or doesn't know, the net would be a logical place to go for help. (ok, maybe a text book first, but who really reads them? :) Granted, nobody wants to see questions with syntax, basic programming techniques, etc. But questions dealing with OS specific functions, advanced programming techniques, and compiler specific functions/bugs should be fair game. The text I had way back when sure didn't mention anything about Cntrl-PrtScr. I'm not sure whether the TP manual mentions it either... :) DISCLAIMER: My job is an education. Whenever I ask a question on the net, I'm asking for help with my "homework". The only difference is that I don't get credit for correct answers at the end of the quarter (my boss gets that :) I do, of course, get credit for incorrect answers....
