Looking for some advice in designing a simple invoice form. I have the data already and i want to create the form around the data.
So do i have to create the form before each invoice? i guess so since each page is a new instance. Can i use the OVERLAY option for this? But i don't want to add this to the printer.ini file i would like to call it from the program... possible?
Or do i just repeat the same //gdi commands at the beginning of each form?
Thanks.

You can specify the overlay as a parameter to the XCALL SPOOL statement.
Or, you can just create a subroutine in your application that draws the form, and call it at the start of each page. (That's pretty much how the OVERLAY option works anyway.)
