Hi Terry,

Crystal Report does work fine with single byte text. Is there any particular reason why you are using unicode ?

Does crystal reports log on to SQL server, or does you VFP Application get the data from SQL server and you pass that to crystal reports?

Walter,

>>I use Crystal 9 Developer and distribute the Crystal runtime engine. Some of my clients have no problem printing reports, others print garbage. I understand that Crystal 9 used Unicode and that is where the problem is, i.e, if the print driver does not use Unicode, garbage appears on the report. Example printer: Kyocera Mita prints garbage.
