>>>I need to display reports in a preview window in the runtime version of VFP 5.0 and am aware that the view menu needs to be available, however, due to the nature of the programme we have written, all menus are disabled and only buttons are visible to the end user (our clients have generally little knowledge of using computers and we ned the GUI to be very simple).

Barbara,

Yeah, I think you're right. I think I was confusing this with how VFP works in design mode. You know, close the standard tool bar, and the next time you start, it's not there.

BTW, you ever get that printer problem worked out?
