>We have an app that is running at literally hundreds of locations. At one site only, they have 5 workstations (all Windows XP) and each workstation has its own HP PSC 1200 series printer physically attached via USB. Our app has many reports - some are created using the report generator and some are @...say reports. None of the @...say reports send any escape codes to the printer. All reports prints EXCEPT one report. The report that won't print has two versions the user can choose from: an @...say version and a report .frx version. Neither will print. Everthing else, literally hundreds of reports, print fine. When the user at any of these workstations prints either of the two versions of this report, the report goes to the print queue and then windows generates the error message:

Tracy,

Not many, but the one that comes to mind is a difference in driver versions.

OTOH, is there any reason why the report couldn't be converted using the native VFP report? I've done a number of reports that seemingly couldn't have been done with it.
