Thanks,
I'll do that.
Its curious to me that the driver info is set into the report and changing it requires hacking the report. Why isn't there an option setting in the report designer? You'd think it's pretty important.

>>I'm following you, the printer controls specified by the report (the report memo .frt) are for the inkjet...but how do I set the printer for the report at run time? I use the the command: SET PRINTER TO NAME GETPRINTER(). Shouldn't that override the printer controls specified in the report memo? Or, how do I setup the report so it's printer independent?
