 AT> Ben, I have BW pointing to Qedit as my editor.

 Art

 When you print from BW it has nothing to do with the editor.  Yes I
 understand that BW launches (points to) Qedit when you create a reply
 or new message.  But when you are in BW and want to print a message
 Qedit is not called.  BW just sends the message to the printer you have
 assigned in the BW setup which also depends on the printer setup in
 your operating system.

 OK I was trying to give you some thoughts to go over your setup and
 check things out.
