>I copy the macro to the printer as a permanent macro before the application starts, so that all the macros that I might reference are present before I need them; typically, we have a batch job that runs once a day to copy the files containing the permanent macros to the printers involved, and that need only be run after the printers are turned off and back on.

How do you copy the macro to the printers? Can you do it inside of VFP? I can only get it to work by doing :
! COPY mymacro LPT2 /b
This brings up the annoying dos window and just doesn't seem right. When I issue: COPY FILE myMacro TO LPT2.DOS --I get not enough disk space. (100k macro, with 2mg of printer memory) If I do: COPY FILE myMacro TO LPT2 --I get invalid seek offset.
Thanks for your help,
Marcus.
