Marcia,

Did you test it with Windows 64? Also, do you know if this driver allows merging of multiple reports into one?

>loObj .SetValue("Output",lcDestFileName) 
>loObj .SetValue("ShowSettings" ,"never") 
>loObj .SetValue("ShowPDF" ,"no") 
>loObj .WriteSettings(.t.)

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
