I am having a problem in the last mile of releasing an eMail option for my reports. I am using the Amyuni driver to create PDF formatted output & sending the resultant file as an attachment. After some recoding and some help from Amyuni ( they gave me an FLL so I would not have to use DLL calls and other very usefull suggestions & examples - good company), I got the whole thing to work prefectly on my NT SP6 workstation. I then compiled the code to an exe (VFP6 SP3) and sent it to one of my users. Much to my disappointment it bombed saying "error accessing print spooler". I tracked the problem down to the line SET PRINTER TO NAME "My PDFPrinter". Yesterday, I found a referance to this problem in a thread here. This thread implied that the printer name might be too long ( set printer name in SP3 does not support long names). So, I shortened it to "eMail", less than 8 char. I had high hopes this would cure the problem but allas no luck, same error. My work station machines are Win95b Osr2 systems.

The thread said I could find other referances to the problem in old threads but I was unable to locate any.

Thanks in advance,

Terry

P.S. The users are patient as they WANT this capability. So, I can experiment on their machines without too much yelling.
It is impossible to make programs idiot proof. Idiots are too cleaver.
