>I'm trying to use a custom dialog to send a report to either an ASCII file or a printer. I'm using aprinters() and a combo box to choose which printer the user might want to use. I've gotten it to goto a file just fine, no problems there, but when I try to send it to the printer...ARGH!!

>If I added PROMPT to the end of the line under the CASE "PRINT" line then all works well when I select the correct printer. I'm wanting to have only one dialog box (mine) and just shoot the report to the freakin printer...HELP!!! Please ask any clarifying question, and I appreciate all your help. This forum has really helped me to be a better programmer!:D

Using SET PRINTER TO NAME ... you may print to different printers. Do not forget to clean up 'default' printer definitions from FRX table.
