MACINTOSH:4.0,4.0a

MACINTOSH

================================================================ ==

The information in this article applies to:

 == Microsoft Works for the Macintosh, versions 4.0, 4.0a == 

= SYMPTOMS =

If a Word Processor document is set up to print marked records only, and you choose Print Preview, and you then choose the Print button, Works will print all of the records in the database (the expected behavior is that only the marked records will be printed).

= CAUSE =

This problem occurs if you choose Print Preview from the File menu in the Word Processor document before you print it.

= STATUS =

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Works versions 4.0 and 4.0a. This problem was corrected in Works version 4.0b.

= MORE INFORMATION =

To obtain new or updated Microsoft products, call Microsoft Sales Information Center at (800) 426-9400.

WORKAROUND
If you do not have Works 4.0b, do not preview the document before you print it. Instead, use the following procedure to print marked records in a Word Processor document:


 * 1) From the File menu, choose Print.
 * 2) Select the Marked Fields Only box. Make sure the Print Preview box has been cleared.
