[AccessD] Changing Printer

Oops.  Just reviewed the code Gary.  I'm sending the stuff to the bar code
printer through a form.  See my code snip in reply to William.  I think I
have to change the default printer.

I'd prefer to change the printer for that one report rather than the default
printer.  Problem is that I don't have that printer - don't know the name.
He's sophisticated enough that I could walk him through changing it in the
design view of the report but every time I send him an update he'd have to
go through the same change.  So I'd like to be able to do it in the load or
open event of the report.

Why wouldn't you just change the report with the barcode to print to the
specific printer? And leave the default alone. What happens if he has
multiple applications going at once and the default printer is presto chango
switched to the little barcode dude?
