Hi Leon,

The PEAPPEND function adds Quik Reports to the menu of the application indication in the function call. It updates 2 resource files in XXASP and also writes 2 files there. In the case of IC, the files ICARSC.ld4 and ICMRSC.ld4 are updated. The new files are IC9000.ld4 and QRPRN.EXE. You must have read/write access to the ICASP directory to be able to do this.

Are you running Accpac IC 6.1B or 6.5A? If you are running version 6.5A, you have to run PEAPPEND with the correct version.

Did you recently add the Service Pack 2 for Accpac WSM 7.0? Older versions of Quik Reports are known to not be compatible with this WSM 7.0 SP2. You would have to contact your dealer to get the fix, which is free as long as you are registered with Quik Reports. Just let your dealer know you need the file that makes Quik Reports compatible with WSM 7.0 SP2.

The Application Resource file in IC is ICARSC.ld4, which is one of the files that Quik Reports updates when running PEAPPEND.

Regards,
Softrak Support

Dear Leon

You can use the command PEREMOVE to remove the QR Printer from the desired applications, in the same way you used PEAPPEND...

If you wish to remove the QR printer from Accpac Plus applications, the command is PEREMOVE.EXE.

Go to the QRASP directory.
At the DOS prompt, type in PEREMOVE.EXE and then the application you wish to remove QR Printer from.

For example, for IC 65a, the command is:
C:\QRASP>peremove ic65a

This will be displayed on the screen:
C:\QRASP>peremove ic65a

QuikReports (R) Print Engine Installer ver. 1.0D
Copyright (C) Softrak 1992, 2000. All rights reserved.

Application installed on disk: Version 6.5A
PEREMOVE will remove QR Print Engine : IC65A
Updating \ICASP\ICARSC.LD4...
Updating \ICASP\ICMRSC.LD4...

Removing Loader and Print Engine from \ICASP

C:\QRASP>

(NOTE: You may require full network rights in order to perform the above commands effectively on a network server.)

Otherwise, the original error you were receiving "The values specified in the application resource file result in a global area which is larger than allowed" (pertaining to QR) has only been associated with WSM7.0, SP2 as previously posted.

Other than that, if you really need to use the QR Printer with IC, you could always try reinstalling QR after running PEREMOVE, as you should be prompted by a question asking you if you wish to install the Quik Reports Printer to existing applications during the QR installation procedure.

Also, check the QR Options - Configure settings to see if the PEDefRepFile option is set to [N] (which is the default).
1. Open QR
2. Select Options - Configure
3. Go down to the 'Default PE Rep File' option and enter [Y] to this selection.

From the QR Help information:
"DEFAULT PE REP FILE
- If you enter Y in this field, Quik Reports will automatically open an application-related report file when you start up the Quik Report Printer from an ACCPAC Plus application. The file is named QRXXRPT, where XX is the application prefix. This option is turned off by default."

Hope this helps!

Regards
