>>Does anybody out there know if there is any way of printing a FoxPro report to a graphics image file (pcx,gif,jpg,etc). Every time I get close to a solution, I hit a brick wall! I have found a way to print to a RTF file using FoxWord (third party app) but then I can't find any software to manage these files. I found that VFP can support RTF data in a general field, but, again, no way of printing a RTF file from VFP. I have found lots of fax software which can handle graphics files but no way of producing graphics files from FoxPro. Some of the report systems are written in 2.6 but I intend rewriting in VFP5 so if a solution can be found in VFP, I will be more than happy to bring the conversions forward. The reports systems are run on any number of PCs so licensing third party software could create a financial "brick wall".

George,

I looked at this route a couple of months ago and found that the RTF ActiveX control stripped out all my column lines in my reports. The reports have boxes around sections and lines between columns. These are present before importing into VFP general field but, once in the field, there is text only!
