ok, thanks anyway. Well, I decied to try out ADO instead, and it worked so much better so I think I stick to that route instead...

If I have the table in the same directory as the report (or actually the same directory as specified when creating the report) everything works fine, I can even change the table name. But as soon as I try to print the report with a table from another directory I get the following error messeage:

>>oreport.ReadRecords()
>>oreport.SelectPrinter('', GETPRINTER(), '')
>>oreport.PrintOut()
