Cancel printing for only certain records via VBScript?

This works at doc level VBScript OnNewRecord:

If Field("DB.NAME") = "JAMES" Then

Format.CancelPrinting()

End If

Problem is, it cancels the entire print job. I need only records that have NAME = JAMES to cancel. I need the evaluation made on a per record basis and the cancelprinting command also only for that record.

Can this be done?

  You can specify Query in database setup,
  Such as to print
  NAME is not equal to "JAMES"

  In Automation edition, you have print condition in template - you can specify to not print if specific condition is met
  From Page setup > Template tab.
  (print condition is not available in Professional edition.)

  Shotaro, thanks! I had completely forgotten about that feature. I think I am even using it on some template I created years back, thanks :)
