Jan,

You need to modify the program so that after the report is complete you flush the print job to the printer via a SET PRINTER TO command. Without this command you rely on a system timeout value to force the output to the printer. I added this to my FPD programs and reports started coming right away.

This does not happen from windows itself. Any hints as to where to look...
