Hi,

We have an FPD 2.6 app that always prints to LPT1: so when we need to print to a network printer, we have been capturing the LPT1: port at the OS level and redirecting LPT1: output to it.

In Win98 you could do this with the mouse by opening Start/Setting/Printers, and then File/Capture Printer Port.

Now we have Win2000 machines and it seems that the only way you can do it is with the net use command. Is there a way to do it with a mouse ?

TIA,

Alex
