Rob,

I'm letting the user set the printer and printer settings and then I'm creating the dummy report and using the Expr, Tab, and Tab2 fields to gather information into memvars for later use.

If the user selects OK everything works fine. I've tried to look at LASTKEY() but no matter what is pressed in the SYS(1037) dialog window LASTKEY will return 13 (Carriage Return).

This code is left over from FPW2.6 and there is probably some new Visual way of doing the same thing which I probably need to look into but one thing is for sure: hitting Esc in SYS(1037) certainly screws up some Windows setting or memvar somewhere.
