>PRINTSTATUS()does not work under Windows as it used to under MSDOS. Is there anyway that I can detect from a VFP9 application if a user has a printer attached AND SWITCHED ON on LPT1? At the moment if the printer is not attached or switched on the app just hangs.

Not really. Under Windows, the printer is attached to a spooler which is always on, no matter if the printer is turned on or not.
