Naomi,

I see you are trying a printing problem without a printer attached to your laptop? And you have nothing on the screen? Ah ha, that's exactly what I see,
I see first a piece of paper in my printer , which is attached to my laptop, and when finished printing the whole thing again on my screen.

May I suggest to attach your printer and than report back?

My configuration seems to be the same as yours: VFP9.2 + Win7 64 Ultimate

Regards,

Koen

P.S. Why dont you come to Arizona?
