Since VFP7, ASCAN() function have a new optional parameter, you can use to avoid EXACT settings & lower/upper case, in my code check for the 6th parameter. In the code I post the 13 means: Case Insensitive; Return row number; Exact OFF
So, if you have VFP7+ now you can chage it ;-)

>Hello Esparta;

>The release 1.0 of this code, had ASCAN.. But, we change it, because ASCAN is affected by the state of EXACTLY ON/OFF and sometimes some ours work-mate didn't see for the upper/lower of some printer names..

>The best deal for our team was to change it.. So since that.. No problems at all..

>But thanks anyway..
