I have the same problem. The following was sent to me by Craig Berntson previously: "There is a bug with VFP 5.0 when using reports converted from VFP 3.0 and using the PRINTER...PROMPT command. MSFT has not entirely acknowledged this bug. The fix is to not use PROMPT."

I have used the following code to no avail also. It works but no matter what printer they choose, reports still print to their default printer:

jcPrinterChosen = GETPRINTER()

IF EMPTY(jcPrinterChosen)
RETURN
ENDIF

SET PRINTER TO NAME (jcPrinterChosen)

REPORT FORM report1 NOCONSOLE TO PRINTER
