Hi Ed and Scott,

I tried moving the NOCONSOLE around and it didn't help. I can get a file created using ASCII but I want to have is a report file in HP format so I can place the file on a diskette or server and have whoever print the report at their discretion. ASCII works but is very ugly.

I tried recreating the report in VFP5 and sending that to a file and the same thing happened, file with 0 bytes and the report going to the printer. I think I must have changed an obscure setting somewhere but haven't a clue what it could be.
