    Whenever you have a problem with just printing, you should try to rebuild your reports.dic file. Often it can become corrupt, which will cause problems printing.

    To recreate the Reports.dic, use these steps below:

    Step A: Export Modified Reports from the current Reports.dic file

    1.In Microsoft Dynamics GP, click Microsoft Dynamics GP, point to Tools, point to Customize, and then click Customization Maintenance.

    2.Select the forms or the reports that you want to export from the current dictionary files. Use the SHIFT key or the CTRL key to select more than one resource.

    3.Click Export.

    4.In the Please select a package file dialog box, select the location where you want to save the file, name the package file, and then click Save.

    Note By default, the package file name is "PackageNumber.Package." The Number placeholder is a placeholder for the number that is incremented every time that an export is performed.

    A progress bar shows the status of the export. If an error occurs during the export, the error is listed on the screen. Generally, reports that appear in the error list are not exported.

    Step B: Rename the existing Reports.dic file

    1.Make sure that all users exit Microsoft Dynamics GP.

    2.Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the GP code folder. Right-click on the Reports.dic file and rename it to Reports.bac. (The file or files may exist on the server or on the workstation. Review the local Dynamics.set file for the correct path.)

    3.Start Microsoft Dynamics GP and click on Tools under Microsoft Dynamics GP, point to Customize and click Report Writer. A new Reports.dic file will be automatically created.

    Step C: Import Modified Reports back into the new Reports.dic file

    1.In Microsoft Dynamics GP, click Microsoft Dynamics GP, point to Tools, point to Customize, and then click Customization Maintenance.

    2.Click Import.

    3.In the Import Package File dialog box, locate the package file that you created during the export process, and then click Open.

    4.In the Import Package File dialog box, click OK to start the import.
