>>I have a routine where I need to allow user to select a printer. Then the printer name he/she selects is store in the variable. And then a bunch of reports/forms are being printed, always directed to the selected printer. I use the GETPRINTER( ) to allow user to select a printer. But the GetPrinter() window does not allow specifying printer properties. For example, if user want to print as Draft I see no way to specify it.

Thank you for your suggestion. At this point I will not go with FoxyPreviewer or any new changes to the program. I am finishing a big change (converting to SQL server backend) and this is no 1 priority. Alternative to GetPrinter() will have to wait.
