[RBG7-L] - Prnsetup was Re: [RBG7-L] - RE: Pre-Release Version of Update 81 (Build:7.1.81.30505)

So Razzak, please clarify:
If at the beginning of the command file you do:
set var DefaultPrinter = (cval('WindowsPrinter'))
prnsetup myprinter
print myreport option printer
then at the end of the program:
prnsetup .DefaultPrinter
It is not neccesary to do the above, get the default printer and restore it 
at the end?
The 'currentprinter' is what you specify in prnsetup and it does not change 
the windows default printer????

So where will the next print command print?

I'm sure you can put me back in the right track.

Philippe,
Try the following and see what you get:
PRNSETUP HP Laserjet 2200d
PRINT reportname OPTION PRINTER
Notice the printer name HP Laserjet 2200d without quotes.
You may also use the (CVAL('CurrentPrinter')) function to
verify the currently selected printer for R:BASE session.
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
