Thanks for answer. I was afraid I missed some nice feature in VFP that allows, say, configure some printer settings before printing using that way...
Definitely ptinting system should be improved from this point of view in VFP, too many questions and weird workarounds like clearing fields in FRX file...

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs
It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
