Hi everyone,

first I must say that we have the right behavior in our development environment. e.g. If we define the printer Setup of a particular report to be printing on lets say a HPLaserJet3 when we actually go REPORT FORM... the report gets sent to the printer we setup even if it's not the default printer. That is OK!

At the clients site... even if we make sure the info in tag, tag2 and expr is referencing their printer w/ the correct driver/infos; when we go REPORT FORM... the report gets sent to Windows default printer and not to the one we setup.

Of course we could manually issue a SET PRINT TO NAME... prior to go REPORT FORM... but would someone have a hint why the "normal" behavior isn't occuring at the client's location.

We're running VFP6 SP3, the customer have an NT4 server with Win95 workstations [yes those R still running :)]

TIA,

Yanick Lavoie
