>>Hi all,
>> I have some reports that use @ say commands as opposed to the report writer. Some reports just can't be done with the report writer. I'm trying to add a feature to allow users to select which printer to send reports to. Bsically I'm using the Fox function GetPrinterand making API calls to GetProfileString, WriteProfileString, and SendMessage to change the default printer temporarily, then set it back after the report runs. When I change the printer and use sendmessage to notify all apps that the default printer changes IE, Word, etc.. prints to the correct printer.. BUT VFP doesn't seem to notice I changed printers.. Maybe I'm going at this the wrong way.. not sure.. Help!

>>TIA!
