Well Duh!! It's always the most obvious things that are overlooked. There is a lot of good info there but no quick answer to my question. It looks like maybe

report form myreport to printer prompt object loReportListener nowait

will be better than

report form myreport loReportListener nowait to printer prompt

but I'm still not sure that's the best way to do it. I'd like to see the code on the print button on the preview window toolbar.

Thanks for your insight.

And where or how would I explore the code to answer this question myself? I have looked all over in the classes and can't seem to find the code that deals with ListenerType.
