Hey, a LOT of us were programming back then. (Go away, all you who were still in grade school then).

If this is always the same printer, just put the printer code in with ??? (3 question marks) if it's FoxPro. May be different if it's Clipper. If you are using several printers, create a small file and get the correct code out of the file depending on workstation, network login, or whatever works.
