Hallo,
[Quoted] we have written a character mode report using a printer file (dflt.prt) to give the printer an escape sequence.
For windows 95 everything works fine. Using windows NT the escape sequence is printed out ("^t2") instead of switching into the prefered mode..
Does anyone has an idea how we can solve it ?

Oracle has told us that this is an Microsoft bug and there is no known workaround.

Thanks in advance
