David,

Clear Tag, Tag2 fields in Report (use it as a table). Also carefully clear all Printer Related info in Expr field. All changes should be done on first record of report only.

>I have a small application with a form and a print button that prints a report “to print prompt.”
>
>I have recently made small changes to the app, and re-loaded it on a few computers in a small LAN. Most of these computers have a laser HP4 printer as their default printer, which is a shared printer on one of the computers. The app works fine on these computers.
>
>However on one computer, the application does not select the default printer (HP4) when the print button is clicked. Instead, a Generic/Text only printer is selected as the default. However this Generic/Text printer is not set as the default printer. The HP4 is set to the default in the windows printers folder. The Generic/Text printer is however connected to this particular computer on LPT1, and is shared because other users have to print to it.
>
>If I exit the application and go into VFP5 on this computer, and select File from the menu, and Print, HP4 is the default printer, which is correct.
>
>But when I run the application, and click the print button, the printer that is chosen is the Generic/Text printer on LPT1, instead of the default HP4 printer?
>
>The previous version of this app worked fine on this computer, and printed to the default HP4 printer. But the most recent version, always selects the Generic /Text printer on LPT1 in the printer dialog (the HP4 is there, if one uses the drop-down, but the Generic is the chosen printer?)
>
>Can anyone explain the reason for this bad behavior, and perhaps the solution to this problem.
>
>Thanks and regards,
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
