there is a rawprint vcx here in the files section, its actually a recently added file, so you can get it with the new button.

>I have some FoxBASE programs that I have to run in VFP 6 for Y2K reasons. The reports are a mass of @ PROWs. Things work fine until I try a report that needs to be in landscape. The FoxBASE code there starts off with an @ PROW that puts out the appropriate PCL escape codes for landscape and the font size. The PCL escape codes are just printed as a character string in VFP6 (the FoxBASE went out to a local printer and the VFP is printing through the network).
