[AccessD] Specific Printer

Yes I suppose I could do that. I'm going to give Paul's coded solution a try
but if not I'll fall back on this. Thanks for the thought as ever Gustav.

Hi Andy

You should be able to create a printer setup at your machine named exactly
the same as at the client, and then set your report to use that specific
printer. If you use anything else than the default paper size, you may get
into trouble.

Hi folks
How do I supply an MDB with a report set to print to a specific printer
which I don't have? The report is used by several people in an office and
needs to print on their one colour printer which is not the default for any
of them. So it's a network printer and I'm not on their netowrk of course.
Can this be done, by code if necessary?

Oh and this is A2K.

Cheers

Andy Lacey

PS Deep snow today here. A very pretty English scene as long as you don't
have to try to negotiate the roads, which I don't tee hee.
