Thom, If everything has been working fine for months, then, there has to be something which has caused that boo-boo <g>. 01. I would check the existence of appropriate directory and the rights. 02. Make sure that default PDF setup is correct in INI file. 03. Last but not least, use the latest build:1.851xRT03 of The Glorious R:BASE 2000 (ver 6.5++) which includes the fix for PRNSETUP 'Printer Name' command when using MS Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 and Windows XP. RBW65PP2.TXT includes all details. http://www.rbase.com/65ppupdates Good Luck!
