Title:
VFP NOT RESPONDING when ??? used to output to printer
Hello all. I have been experiencing problems when using ??? to output to the printer. Before I call my report created in VFP 7.0(which has been hacked of all printer driver inofrmation), I call my procedure below.
When I issue:
do pytpe with "SLIP", the appropriate printer is selected and prints fine.
When I issue:
do ptype with "PLAIN", is when I have the problem of VFP hanging up.
Procedure ptype
Parameters FormVar
Do Case
Case Formvar = "PLAIN"
??? Chr(27)+Chr(27)+"PTRN1"+Chr(27)+Chr(27) && printer #
??? Chr(27)+Chr(27)+"7" && select PRINTEK mode
??? Chr(27)+Chr(76)+"3" && select 1,3
??? Chr(27)+Chr(27)+"2" && select EPSON mode
??? Chr(27)+ "@" && Resets the form
Case Formvar = "SLIP"
??? Chr(27)+Chr(27)+"PTRN3"+Chr(27)+Chr(27) && printer #
Endcase
RETURN
What else is needed to get this report to print to a Triform (Epson) printer?
Please help!
Thanks, Angie
