Hi again Nadya, since I see this issue in this thread too, I'll post it here. Another issue that I should've mentioned in my other thread is that as you know, GDI printers will not accept printer control codes, so while using ??? may work with your current printers, there is always the possibility that someone will get a host-based GDI printer in the future and the reports will no longer print at all. You will only receive error lights on the printer itself or the reports goes to la la land. I have run into this this year as some of our customers started purchasing systems that included low-end GDI printers so all of our reports are slowly migrating to VFP frx reports...

>>You might take a look at MSKB #Q017964. This is a reply to a question I had, and the answer from Ed Rauh. My question number was MSKB #Q035862. This would allow you to grab the handle of the print job and direct the output to a specific printer using CreateDC() WIN32API. You could send the senquence of character needed to put the printer into landscape mode. You would need to look at the printer's Docs. to see what sequence of characters to seed.
>>You can capture the printer's name to a variable like:

>>cprinter = GETPRINTER()
