Looking at the printer default settings in the first record of a .FRX or .LBX, I see that the settings fo rthe destination printer are stored there.

This is set by the File|Page Setup menu option and is presumably used by FoxPro when the report is printed.

Q1) is this always used with REPO FORM ... TO PRINTER
* I hope so

Q2) is this the default used for REPO FORM ... TO PRINTER PROMPT
* I hope so

Q3) what happens if the user has no connection rights to this printer under WinNT or Win95?
* I think output goes nowhere with no errors, this would explain a bug I'm trying to track down. The client is using WINSHIELD to prevent users changin any of their system settings, including printers.

Q4) what happens if the user has *NO* printers defined at all?
* I think output goes nowhere with no errors, this would explain a bug I'm trying to track down. The client is using WINSHIELD to prevent users changin any of their system settings, including printers.
