I need to print (to a file) the detailed Object data from my universe, but BO only gives me the option to print to a .prn file. Is there any way to save it to a text or word file? Thanks.

If you’re working with a repository you could check out if the managero.unv can get the ‘object data’ you need.

Or look at www.win2pdf.com, this website offers a print driver, which will re-direct any printing to a pdf file.

Ted: Which version of Designer are you on? Version 6 allows you to create a PDF file as well as a PRN file. You can use queries against the repository (already mentioned) or print to a postscript printer on a file device (meaning a virtual rather than a physical printer) and then process the output with ghostscript or some equivalent. The “ghostscript” program extracts data from a postscript output file.
If you can post your specific requirements it may be easier to write some SQL code against the repository.
