Hi Martin,
Thanks for you assistance.
I actually did have a look at the sample program and tried running the code to change the printer name in my app:
**************
prtname=set("printer",2)
if chgprtname(prtname,"Visual FoxPro","My App Name")= 0
=messagebox("It Worked",0,"")
else
=messagebox("It didn't work",0,"")
endif
**************
I tried running this code in my startup program, and just before sending a report to the network printer (in my case ptrname returned "\\CUCMPDC\HP LASERJET 4SI MX"). In both cases I still saw "Visual FoxPro" in the print manager window.
