I'm using VFP5 and Win95b. But why would my video driver affect the printing? They look fine on the screen - it's only when printing that they disappear! For the record, my Video Card is a new PCI video card with drivers no more than 6 months old.

I have found that setting the graphics to 'clip' instead of 'stretch' in the report writer seems to help the situation - though I don't know why.
