Is it printing the printer escape characters on the report? If so, on NT there is an option in the printer setup to send raw files, which corrects the problem. I don't have XP, so I don't know if that option is available for you. If not you may be out of luck.
I haven't checked recently to see if it has changed, but not too long ago Developer was still not certified for XP and character mode reports were one of the problem areas. Received on Fri Dec 27 2002 - 23:54:40 CET
