$ENABLE-ARCHIVE-TO-
TAPE
When set to ON, the VISTACLN process archives reports to
be removed from a folder to a magnetic tape or DAT drive.
When set to OFF, this feature is disabled.
$ENABLE-BLANK-PAGE-
BREAKS
When set to ON, this parameter forces the printing of blank
pages. The default setting is OFF, which stops blank pages
from printing.

If VISTA does not open the database, a security check will
not be performed when a user selects a report to view, print,
or delete.
