Well, you can't print a file directly; you have to print from memory.
You can use:MyPrintJob = FileToStr("ReportOutput.txt")
??? PrinterCodes + MyPrintJobAssuming that your textfile is called ReportOutput.txt, and you already declared the variable PrinterCodes (to prepare the printer, for instance, condensed print).
HTH, Hilmar.
