Hi Sergey,

Hope you're doing well! Yeah the Printer Environment is unchecked and we are running SP2.
We had incorporated using the WScript.Network to change the default printer and that had
worked for our inhouse testing. But our first beta test site has run into problems where
that method doesn't seem to work correctly. I was going to try to implement the other
two methods from your website to see if either worked for him but we are also examining
recoding all our methods where we use REPORT FORM TO FILE (a thought I do not relish).

So you are thinking this may be a SP2 issue? For some reason I thought it was a VFP9 issue
but I can probably try it with SP1. Do I just drop the old DLLs in my application folder
(we never register them) or do I need to uninstall and reinstall my VFP 9 and then
upgrade to SP1?

As always, thanks for you help!
Kevin Scott
