Hi Jess,

I did a POS program in VFP a couple of years ago that printed to receipt printers (Ithaca and Star) using @...say and bold by sending escape code sequences to the printer. It is done the same as when you print a report using @...Say. Determine the receipt printer manufacturer and model number and look it up on the web. You should find the printer control codes in the manual for the receipt printer.
