I have a client requirement to be able to print a report selecting a different papersource for each page. Under Jade 5.0.015 this requires closing the printer between printing each page to change the
papersource parameter - which turns printing the report into 3
separate print jobs (only one page can be previewed at a time.

Using Jade 5.1.08, will I be able to use the JadeReport classes, and JadePrintPage, JadePrintDirect classes to implement this as one print job?
Is anybody doing this already? I haven't made much headway with the documentation in the helpfiles on these classes to work out how I need
to modify my existing reports to use these new features in Jade 5.1
but they look terrific.

Thanks for any tips you can give me

Duh.... i have just found time to finish reading the "Migrating to
Jade Release 5.1" notes and see under Print Enhancements that paper source can be changed dynamically now without closing the printer
between pages
Thank you, Jade!!!!!
