[AccessD] print report to a specific printer

In that case, I think you have only one choice, which is changing the
default printer temporarily and then changing it back.  An MDE isn't
going to let you open a report in design view, which is what you have to
do in order to change the printer and then save it.  Maybe someone else
has had success using the report's printers collection in an mde, but I
haven't tried it.

How were you planning to insure that the specific printer is available
to the target system?

	I have a report that I need to send to a specific printer, that
may or
	may not be the user's default printer.
	
	Does anyone know how to do this using code.
	
	Thanks in advance!
