Hi Y'all,

Is there any way to "pre-load" the print dialog screen that comes up when "PROMPT" is used with REPORT FORM?

This would be nice because for a certain common set of printouts, the users have an "options" screen (VFP form) that comes up and allows them to specify whether they want the report printed, or to a PDF file etc and one of the options on the screen is "copies". And then there is a "Preview" button and when they fire this, if they press the print button on the preview toolbar they expect that the number of copies on that dialog be the same as the original form. So somehow I have to pass forward the number of copies. Not sure if this would be through some settings on the preview container/toolbar or windows functions.

TIA,

Albert Gostick
