Well, I am one of those who doesn't have the problem (in 6.11) - but I would
think that, for Drew, that he has only got a partial solution to his
problem. Sure, Proc REPORT has LS and PS options which are independent of
the 'OPTIONS options' - but what if you wanted to use Proc PRINT, or
virtually any other Proc (most of which do not have such invocation line
options)?
Are we saying that this is a bug in 6.09? Have other people experienced the
same problem with 6.09? - if so, I'm surprised that the problem has not been
identified and fixed years ago. Are we really saying that one cannot change
the PS using OPTIONS in 6.09?
