Adam,
I never used that feature in TS4 but I would check to see if my
computer is bogging down. Is it clean with all fans running. If you
run your print out with the task manager on see if performance in the
performance tab is nailed at 100% or out of memory. All platforms of
TS are subject to just craping out with no notice if the computer
can't keep up. This is a perfect example. How long have you been
running it without cleaning it? Do you use it for anything other than
the market. Maybe it has spy ware or trojan, virus or just needs a
reinstall of TS4.

Actually today it is so bad that TS4 just now only printed 2 out of the 24 lines
that it should have printed to the file.
This is such a hardcore bug, but I checked the tradestationsecurities.com forum
and couldn't see any mention of such a problem. I guess I'm 8 years too late
with TS4.
