Carlos,
Before preview prompt for printer then if printer is different from the one you set,
malias = alias()
select 0
use myreport.frx
scatter memvar memo
blank fields expr, tag, tag2
use
select (malias)
report form myreport preview
select 0
use myreport.frx
gather memvar
use
or to keep all simplier, before delivery, "blank fields expr, tag, tag2" for all reports to kill printer driver setup.
