Many thanks for the quick reply Chris.
I am using the same PC and OS for both Net Express and Visual Cobol (version is 2.1 but am planning to install Cobol Server in the next week or so). The program is compiled as native code.
The interesting thing is the slow printing problem only arises with mixed font sizes (the font family doesn't change). The program first prints an address on a statement in Courier New font 14-point then the rest of the statement lines in Courier New 10-point.
I'll load up a demo program to the Customer Care site either this afternoon or tomorrow morning.
Thanks again,
John
