>How would I go about saving a default printer for each report in VFP5a(without prompting on every print)? I have an exe residing on a network drive that many different users will be running on different PC's. My reports are in private datasessions. I have tried using the sys() function to set default then use set('Printer',2) to store the value, but they are different.

Hi Bill,

Each user has a printer Set to Default within Windows95. You could issue something like the following before the REPORT FORM.....:

mcDefaultPrinter=SET("PRINTER",2)
SET PRINTER TO NAME (mcDefaultPrinter)
