>Hi,
> In my apps thus far, I have issued either "to printer" or "preview" depending on the button click on a form to allow the user to view and/or print the report. This has never been a problem until one of my customers got another printer that they are running usuing a data switch. Dot matrix and Inkjet. So now they want the Windows prompt to choose the driver. When I issue the prompt and they select the printer, no matter which printer is chosen, the report is printed in the top left corner in an area about 3"x3". I have tried this on Okidata, HP, Lexmark, and a Xerox printer. All with the same result. What do I need to set to get the report to print as it does when issued with "to printer" directly? Thanks in Advance,
>Chris

This was fixed in VFP 5.0a release. I think you can also download the Visual Studio 97 Service pack 3, but I'm not sure you can go from 5.0 to SP3. Anyone know for sure?
