Well put!

No need to explain.:-)

>On a slightly un-related note, we do get to find out when something is successfully printed yes? Isn't that the spooler notifications that can be set to pop up (at least under NT, I don't know about 95/98 how this works). Do you know how to tap into this information via the API? I don't know if it would help with finding when it didn't print, but if nothing else, one could queue receipts internally, and remove them when the spooler notification is sent.

Since I don't use NT (I am shortly going to be switching to Win 2K however), I'm not exactly what you're referring to here. It doesn't sound like anything available under Win 9x, but there could be something I'm missing here. It would seem, however, that making VFP aware of this action would be the same as the printer thing.

One of the reasons (there are many) I'm switching is to familiarize myself with NT functionality and its API. I just can't stay 'way from this low level stuff.:-)
