Hi Craig and Joel,
>>In our current reports, we are not specifying a printer in the setup, but still running into a few problems. To be fair, this is a project I've inherited that should have used a word processor mail-merge function instead of Crystal, and is using the old compiled reports option for distribution. But you are saying that for typical banded reports, I shouldn't have problems with different printers as long as I don't specify a printer in the setup, right?

The problems are caused by the printer driver. Different printer drivers render the report differently. Whether you've selected a printer in the report itself might change the lay-out of the report in the preview mode, but does not change the print itself. If your report is not going to print on one specific printer this option is useless.
According the seagate, these problem are unavoidable. when designing your report you should beware that the lay-out on your screen might not exactly be the layout on your print. If I understand the cause correctly (printer driver rendering) this problem also exists in normal VFP reports.
Walter,
