>I used to have my printer hooked up on a network, but moved it to my computer. In my lbx table the output=\\te2002\smart used to be the line. I want to change it to print to the COM2. How would I do this? I've tried output=COM2: and output = The name of the printer. The printer does print with it on COM2. But it doesn't print from my foxpro application. I hope this makes sense. Thank you in advance.

An LBX is a special case of an FRX - the target device is embedded in the EXPR, TAG and TAG2 entries - try clearing those out so that it accepts the current printer assignment in effect from VFP, or simply modify the LBX directing it to COM2: - I'd strip the target designation from the LBX so that when the printer gets moved to yet another port, you don't have the same headache again.
