Hi Bill,

>While we're on the subject of PDFs, how can I take a VFP 6.0 report and output it to either a PDF format file or a Word/RTF file? Do I need special print drivers, or do I need to call an API function?

For PDF format there's a special printer driver out there that save anything into a PDF file instead of printing it. I think the price was somewhat around $250. For RTF format you can use FoxWord. It doesn't convert anything, but tries to reproduce the appearance of a report as close as possible. The same applies to GenRepoX from Markus Egger or GenHTML which ships with VFP 6. Both tools are able to create HTML files that can be opened by newer releases of Word.
