I have an application that uses a web service to submit data and print some reports. Since you cannot print reports from a vfp dll, I have the web service dll call a com .exe control to do the print. The web service is called using credentials for a predefined user, and it launches the comprint.exe under those credentials.

I am having a problem with the software erroring when it tries to open networked printers. I have installed the network printers under the account it is using, and I have verified that I can print to them.

I do not have this problem when using an XP pro machine to host the web service.

Any suggestions?
