985.0. "VIP professional not printing" by CSSE::WARD () Fri Dec 18 1987 10:29

    Until recently, I've been using VIP Professional (a Lotus 1A like
    clone) without a printer.  The Graph print works fine and WYSIWYG
    editors/fonts of two other packages work correctly with the printer.
    [No problem with AMIGADOS copy to PRT: either]
    
    Now I haven't gotten a screen or print dump of a worksheet to work.
    The range subcommand gives a A1 cell address and I type in A1:D224
    which generates an error.  Nothing else in the print works!  Any
    pointers on what is going wrong? [I cleared the setting also without
                                      results]

    I think Lotus and VIP use a different range designator than A1:Z9,
    which is what DECalc wants to see.
    
    Try designating the range as A1..Z9, in other words a double period
    between cell references.

    Uggh... You got me!  You're right.   I'm re-learning DECalc at work
    and haven't been working with VIP lately.  I'll give the spreadsheet
    another try this weekend.
