	I am running a database searching program that provides the
option of printing search results from within the program -- nothing
unusual about that.  I want to redirect the output that would normally
be driected to the printer to a file that i could print at my leisure,
transfer to another machine etc.  Is there some way to temporarily
assign a file to an LPTx: port?
	Please email responses. Thanks.
