Dragan,

Thanks for the additional info.

>I'm converting the FPD reports quite regularly, and I remember having that error when I had a wrong setting in the _transport variable; as far as I've read, this should be empty (it's C:\VFP\TOOLS\CONVERT\TRANSPRT.PRG in my case, but I think it actually doesn't care) and the _converter="C:\VFP\CONVERT.APP". Both variables should be checked in the help file, I got this to work with a little experimenting.
