Cathy,

I thought that too, but it's really much simpler. Use a leading space in front of the entries with a "\",
so you have " \\server\printer" and it works fine.

You need to remember to SET PRINTER TO NAME (ALLTRIM(ax[x,1])).

You don't need the macro for SET PRINTER TO NAME, name substitution works fine here.
