When a /PF is used to print a range to file, LDW leaves control codes
imbedded in the output file. This throws apps like Word Writer and SciPlot
for a loop since they do not like the codes. To get around this, I have to:

      1. save te range with /PF
      2. move to an unused area of the sheet
      3. import the print file (.LDP) as text (this throws away ctl codes)
      4. resave the data with another /PF

LDW should not write nonprintable codes to file (as far as I know, LOTUS
doesn't). Is there anyway to stop it from writing these codes to file?
