One of the questions all of us have seen a number of times is, "How do I tell if the user printed the report from the preview window?" I figured out a way, but it's anything but elegant.

One of the things that disables a timer is printing a report. What I did was create a form with a timer. When the REPORT FORM (with NOWAIT) command was issued the timer's .Interval was set to 50 milliseconds. In tracking this (via SET DEBUGOUT TO and DEBUGOUT), I found that the interval jumped from an average of less than 60 milliseconds to over a full second when print button was clicked. BTW, this was with a report with only one record being printed. Well, I said it wasn't elegant...

Of course, there's absolutely no way to tell if the user hits the Cancel button. Anyone know if VFP 6.0 addresses these issues?
