>I'm using aprinters() to fill a combo box with available printers on an winNT PC. The network printers lose the first '\' and shows '\computername\sharedprinter' instead of '\\computername\sharedprinter'. Is this a feature or have I run into a problem?

Combos understand "\" (as first character) as disable mark. I guess, you may add space as the leftmost character to remove the problem.
