Hi John,
VFP is known to store printer info in each report's metadata file (the *.frx file) when the report is run interactively in foxpro.

To clean this up properly, you need to open each frx file with a USE command (USE myreport.frx), go to the first record in the table, and clear the TAG1 and TAG2 fields.

Also, you may need to comment out some printer specific settings that sometimes show up in the EXPR field. HTH
