Rewrite Sales Order Print Block in magento

Question

I'm trying to rewrite sales order print block. to retrieve store vat number. But the field for the vat number is blank. this works fine when I create my function on the core.

here is my config.xml app/code/local/Company/Sales/Block/etc/config.xml

<config>
    <global>
        <blocks>
            <sales>
                <rewrite>
                    <order_print>Invent_Sales_Block_Order_Print</order_print>
                </rewrite>
            </sales>
        </blocks>
    </global>
</config>

and here is my print.php

app/code/local/Company/Sales/Block/Order/Print.php class Invent_Sales_Block_Order_Print extends Mage_Sales_Block_Order_Print

 public function getVatNumber()
    {
        $storeVAT = Mage::getStoreConfig("general/store_information/merchant_vat_number");

        return $storeVAT;
    }

here is my print.phtml

app/design/frontend/theme/package/template/sales/order/print.phtml

<?php echo "VAT Number:".' '.$this->getVatNumber(); ?>

Your help would be appreciated. Thanks

I manged to fix this. I misplaced the etc directory. I placed in inside Block, instead of making it to be on the same level.

Thank you
