Setting the Mouse Button (and Printing Weirdness)

[Sarah]

revShowPrintDialog doesn't actually do anything itself, it just sets 
things up so that revPrintField knows what to do. I think that you need 
to explicitly use "revShowPrintDialog false, false" to turn off the 
show dialogs setting after it has been shown once.

Cheers,
Sarah
