I apologize, I think I made it a little fuzzy and vague. What I am actually referring to is not inherently a FOXPRO problem. I noticed that if you were printing a file from within windows and you left it on PRINTFILE (in filetype, or saveas filetype etc) it would append to two extensions together rendering the file virtually useless (this I think has to do with using ADOBE POSTSCRIPT to print the file to EPS). IE: when printing to file, (using the EPS file print), if I left the filetype at PRINT FILE (.PRN) it would append the XXX.EPS.PRN (or maybe that was PRN.EPS), anyways, as soon as I selected the saveas filetype to be *.* it would save properly with ONLY the EPS extension.

I think a similar thing is occuring here. It is hardcoded to append the TXT extension, unless you can say the filetype to be exported is of *.* (or ALL FILES) then you will forever be cursed with the TXT extension.

How to fix it?? There you have me stumped...

>I'm a little fuzzy on where you're setting the filetype. Is this some sort of clause on the REPORT FORM command? Is it something that is set in the printer setup? I've never seen this clause before, and the VFP 6.0 help only refers to filetype in the Coverage Engine object.
