>>Is there any way of obtaining the windows default printer name and also setting the default printer without using GetProfileString() - I would prefer to avoid INI files. I have obtained the printer details via APRINTER() but just need to be able to set default, do my printing, then set back again. Any ideas?

Bill,
GetPrinter() is a user-selectable option - I want to change programmatically. I found it straight away though - x=set("printer",2) returns the name.
