How to exclude Step & Next columns in DISPLAY STRUCTURE in VFP 9.0

Hi,

I have just upgraded to VFP 9.0

But when I print DBF structure using the command :

LIST STRUCTURE TO PRINTER

it also shows additional columns - Next & Step.

Is there anyway to print structure w/o these columns like it used to be in
earlier versions.

The printout with these additional columns looks all weird to understand.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Dinesh

Dinesh,
You could alway sent it to a file and remove the offending data, but you =
may what try these three other alternatives to give you a readable =
listing:
1) Use the
SET PRINTER FONT cFontName [, cFontSize] [STYLE cFontStyle]
command to set the font to a smaller fixed width font =
(non-proportional). For a list of candidates
check out http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll? Wiki~M.../> ~WIN_COM_DNA

2) Use the AFIELDS( ) Function to get the data, transfer it to a cursor, =
and create a simple report.
Adjust the columns as you'd like them.

3) Go to the UT (http://www.universalthread.com/) download area and get =
one of the many free
utilities that will do this for you. LS - List structure is one that =
comes to mind.
