Well Marcus I gave up. I needed to get this project out of here to I ditched VFP6.0. I looked at all the threads you suggested and saw no concreate solution, just a lot of talk about who's falt it was. Personally, I think falt is not relevant here as we have a product that fails with the most popular printer - opperating system combination on the market! This makes the program dangerous at best and usless at worst. I will stick to 5 for now until I see a better solution.
Thanks for your help
Terry
It is impossible to make programs idiot proof. Idiots are too cleaver.
