Hi, Barbara

I stumbled onto the solution you gave here and then one of my users threw me a curve, they do not want to print on their default printer. So, I let them pick the printer, however, the default printer settings (laser) are still being used on the chosen printer (deskjet).

Any suggestions?
thanx,
todd.
