Hi Bouharb,

Printing to DOT MATRIX Printer from within the VFP application is easy. Just pass a DMP initialization code "@" with chr(27) and a series of ? commands. I've done this in my VFP application to print a list of customers as below :

_LMARGIN = 3
SET DEVICE TO PRINTER
SET PRINTER ON
SET CONSOLE OFF
??? CHR(27)+'@' && DMP initialisation code
??? CHR(18) && set to normal draft mode

SELECT Cust
SCAN
? ALLT(cust_name) AT 5
?? ALLT(cust_add) AT 35
?? ALLT(city) AT 60
?? ALLT(phone) AT 70
ENDSCAN


SET DEVICE TO SCREEN
SET PRINTER OFF
SET CONSOLE ON
