I have tried DefPrinter=Set('Printer,2')
which in Foxpro 9 should return the default windows printer but only returns the printer state of On or Off
I have tried Aprinter(TestPrinter,1) which is reported in Help to return a 5 column array hoping it would
show a column as to which printer was default but only return a 2 column array.

What I am trying to do is to set the printer back to the default printer after using PrintName= getprinter() to send a report
to a selected printer.

The program does a loop to printer extra pages if the user wants them and I did not want them to have to select the correct
printer with 2 part carbonless in it each time it went through the loop.

But after the program executes it does not set the printer back to the default windows printer


Thanks for any help
Andy
