Brenda,

1. I assume you do not have any printer specific information in the Report.frx file. Otherwise do something like this:

*----------------
use report.frx
go top
replace tag with "", tag2 with "", expr with ""
* expr may contain important not printer specific information like orientation. * Then remove it manually from 'expr' field.
*--------------

2. What are printer names that VFP can recognize?
Try ?set("printer",3) to return the default VFP printer. The entire collection of printers you can retrieve from aprinters(aprnt). To redirect to another printer you need to call /set printer to NAME printername/ before /report form.../. "printername" should be the same as it appears in the array aprnt.

I am installing my application in the training room. The application resides on the desktop. The printer will be over the Novell network. When I try to print to the printer I get the Windows Print to File window (Print to File is not set in the Details tab.). If I capture the LPT1 and assign the network path to LPT1 and try to print then the machine locks up.

The printer is an HP 4000. But it is a Novell network problem I would assume.

Any Ideas
