ok, so I have never used escape codes befroe, lucky me, right?

Now I need to use them, and I can not figure it out. Can someone show me a snippet how they successfully use printer escape codes?

I am trying:



SET PRINTER TO NAME GETPRINTER()

??? CHR(27) + "E" && Put it in a sane state
??? CHR(27) + "&l1S" && Turn on duplexing

REPORT FORM rptRateSheet.frx NOEJECT NOCONSOLE TO PRINTER

??? CHR(27) + "E" && Set it sane again.


I KNOW this is teh right code. I found it both in teh manual, and in the code for another FP/Dos app that does this successfully..

Help a report newby?

Tim
