Print Command v3.5mr2 is bugging me

[granpagus]

I run this code at the end of some programs:

C3 =COMMENT/YESNO,PRINT REPORT?
IF/C3.INPUT=="YES"
PRINT/REPORT,TO_FILE=OFF,PROMPT,$
TO_PRINTER=ON,DRAFTMODE=OFF,$
PREVIOUS_RUNS=DELETE_INSTANCES
END_IF/

No problem except in subprograms. The subs are called from a main program running a loop allowing me to select which to run.

If I say no to the print request and run the sub again, it appends the report.

If I add the following it works fine. The files are saved to a dummy directory for later destruction.

ELSE_IF/C3.INPUT=="NO" PRINT/REPORT,TO_FILE=ON,OVERWRITE=C:\PCDMISv3_5r2\Inspec tionData\Dummy\sub_SS1427_MH-001_CriticalFeatures001.rtf,$
TO_PRINTER=OFF,DRAFTMODE=OFF,$
PREVIOUS_RUNS=DELETE_INSTANCES
END_ELSEIF/

So what do I do to eliminate this behavior?
I want to minimize the number of workarounds for me to remember.
I think my brain is getting full.

you need to state:
overwrite (or)
append

C3 =COMMENT/YESNO,PRINT REPORT?
IF/C3.INPUT=="YES"
PRINT/REPORT=OVERWRITE,TO_FILE=OFF,PROMPT,$
TO_PRINTER=ON,DRAFTMODE=OFF,$
PREVIOUS_RUNS=DELETE_INSTANCES
END_IF/
\

I think?

And I thought I had problems.
Wait, I'm just up the road and I'm still at work?
This is wrong, really wrong.

After furthur messing around, this seems to be a 3.5 thing or subprograms in general.
The dialog box has the overwrite for only the output to file or dmis options.
I tried turning these on but the result was the same.
Multiple reports sent to printer (how ever many times I initially refuse the print option) and nothing to file.
But when I add the secon print command it works.
If I fixed it everyone would probably get confused so maybe I best leave it alone.
Boss keeps saying we're gonna upgrade but he won't say when.
I'm tired and I'm going home.
