I've found very weird behaviour of REPORT FORM to FILE command. VFP app runs long nightly batch and sometimes launches REPORT FORM to FILE command to create some files to be used later on. Usually, it works OK, but sometimes "Printer not Ready" error generated. I tested the case and found that REPORT FORM to FILE still needs some printer to be connected with PC and if PC loses connection to Net Printer the problem arises. Is it right behaviour? I cleaned up 'Report Definition' fields from FRX file but still get the same result: if I remove printer from Win Print Setting (no default printer) REPORT FORM to FILE generates nothing! Any ideas? TIA.
