>>>I don't believe you can control the behavior of SYS(1037). However, if you were to use the Common Dialogs ActiveX control, you can (somewhat) control the positioning of the Printer Setup Dialog (it's the same one you get with SYS(1037)). It's (the dialog) position will be relative to the position of the control (even though the control is invisible). You also can retrieve information from it (something you can't do with the SYS() function).

>It's really rather simple. Create a form with .Visible, .ControlBox, .MaxButton, .MinButton all equalling .F. Drop the Common Dialogs control on it. Give the form a name, like DlgsForm. The position of the form/control will dictate where on the screen it will appear. It will be to the right and below it. Then save it to a class library with an appropriate name, say, CmmnDlgs. Now once the class library is set, use:

I did what you said and could not get it to work. Maybe you left out a step.

1. I made my FORM call dlgsform with the buttons you said.
2. Save AS class called "Cmmmdlgs
3. put oDlgs = CREATEOBJECT("cmmndlgs") into my main.prg and added PUBLIC oDlgs
4. put oDlgs .dlgsform.flags=64 - I get an error when compiling that says UNKNOW MEMBER dlgsform.
5. in the click event of a comand buton, I coded oDlgs.Dlgsform.showprinter()
Do you know what is wrong?

Thanks rob
