On VMS V2, the only reasonable way is to assign sys$print to the null device. The 780 I use is a Field Test site for VMS V3. I noticed today that this problem has been corrected in V3 by adding two qualifiers to the SUBMIT command: /KEEP - don't delete the log file after printing. /[NO]PRINTER - Send (don't send) the log file to the printer. /NOPRINTER implies /KEEP. -- Roger Goun ------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
