The SET PRINTER TO is done, soon after printing each individual report. I am also using the Q103645 from the MSKB. The loop to create all of the reports takes about 15-30 minutes. If I wait 10 minutes before I access the directory, none of the reports within that 10 minutes get created, even though I can watch the "Printing..." box for every report. Any reports after the 10 minutes do get created.
>Long, long time ago there use to be an issue with putting SET PRINTER TO after any printing to release jobs into the queue. If you didn't do that, the reports wouldn't print until you quit the application. So, I'm wondering, if this is related.

>>I am currently printing a few hundred reports(via DO...WHILE loop) to a remote directory (\\REMOTE\temp\) for printing at a later time. The remote machine is running Win98 and the directory is shared. The problem I have is that, until I access the directory thru Windows Explorer, the reports are "pretending" to print, but never make it there. As soon as I open the folder the reports immediately start being created. Has anyone else seen this?
