I have no problem using the chr(15) for condensed. I am using actually FPW2.6. When i run my application outsite the language i got error 125 [printer no ready] at the line i am sending the condensed code to the printer via ???. I tried to send the chr(15) with @ SAY but it didnot work. I am running Window ME and FPW 2.6. Is is a bug? It seems that the language can´t send codes direct to the printer. I even changed spool configuration and printer status check, but i still get printer not ready error.
