>>Hi
>>
>>I am trying to give the user to select an appropriate printer near him (there are about 5 dotted over 2 offices)
>>
>>My VFP code to run a report is as follows:-
>>
>>myreportx="t:\global\docketdoki.frx"
>>report FORM (myreportx) TO PRINTER prompt noconsole
>>
>>I get the prompt and select the printer but it prints on the wrong printer - if I go into page setup in the report and change the printer to the one I want I get that - but then I can't select another printer at the prompt
>>
>>Why doesn't the prompt allow me to select another printer? is it because page setup is showing a printer - if so how do I get rid of it?
>>
>>Thanks
>>

>1. Open report as a table
>2. go to first record
>3. Clear contents of these fields: Tag, TAG2
>4. In Expr field leave only these lines:
