    Default Cannot Print from RunProduct if the Printer is not defined as default

    Hello Members,

    I have to print a report from a Form using the RunProduct command.
    The point is that if I select a printer defined as default in the operating system, the report is printed but if I choose a printer not defined as the default one, the printer machine doesn't do anything, i.e. no report output is produced.

    Could you please help me to solve this issue, since we have several printers in the company and we should choose any of them.

    Thanks a lot

    José María

    Default Re: Cannot Print from RunProduct if the Printer is not defined as default

    This doesn't seem to be a Forms problem. Have you tried selecting other printer from other applications, like MS Word for example.

    Default Re: Cannot Print from RunProduct if the Printer is not defined as default

    Dear Sadik,

    The problem is that if I Set any printer as default the report is printed. If the same printer is not set as default and I choose it (I put this printer name as a parameter in the RunProduct, the same as I did in the previous example) the report is doesn't been printed.

    Using the same printer as default or not the behaviour is completely different.

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Regards

    José María
