Re: E-mailing a SQR report: Conversion requirements

In all honesty I think you are making this a bigger problem than it
needs to be.  The .lis file is just a simple text file.  You can rename
the file from xxx.lis to xxx.txt and use notepad to open it.  There is
no conversion needed.  Just attach the report to the email and let the
user open the report in any program they want.  If they want to print
the report and keep the formatting then all they need to do is just copy
the report to the printer from a dos prompt (I believe John Sayre
touched upon this).

Really simply: > Copy C:\temp\xxx.lis lpt1 (if lpt1 is defined)
OR
               > Copy C:\temp\xxx.lis \\printer_loacation\printer_name

Hope this helps,

-Mike

Has anyone e-mailed a sqr report itself? The sqr produces a .lis (dot
LIS) file
and we would like to convert it, probably using Acrobat, and then e-mail
it.
What are the other ways to convert it. The recipient is not a PeopleSoft
user
and does not have any sqr product on their site.
