In VFP5 they solved it with set('printer',2). In VFP3 I used to do the
following:

cPrinter=getprinter()
keyboard char(13)

Not the most elegant solution East of the Mississipi, but if you can put
up with the dialog flashing up for a small second it works. BTW you
need it only once at startup.

Lisa Slater Nichols has a more sophisticated approach: she creates a
report and goes into the frx and picks up the printer from the ad hoc
Memo (If you're interested, Tom put this as the Indian Trick in the VFUG
tips and tricks section).
