>>I need a function on one of my forms that prints out the data for the current record in the table. Sort of a datasheet printout... no preview; just print. It needs to be formatted somewhat. Having always used foxfire for my reporting needs, I have never had to deal directly with VFPs printing. I know this will sound silly, but for all the literature I have, I can't find anything that points me in the right direction. What commands should I explore? Do I create a formatted report first? This has got to be a simple task, but like many other simple tasks before, I have become frustrated with the documentation I have. Could somebody please offer an abbreviated step x step? Thanks.

Thanks Dave- I think that that was the push I needed in the right direction.
