When I try to enter printer driver setup in the report file I get the following error message:

"SMARTPD's P_FONTS.DBF, FPT or CDX Missing!"

However all these files are present. Any ideas? Thanks
 
Hi

Just open up the P_Fonts table in the command window and reindex/Pack. CLose it.

Yet another thing is to make this table available in the applications default directory. There could be a path issue.

When I try to do what you suggested a message pops up saying "Cannot Write to a Read Only File" However I checked the file attributes and it is not read only
 
I believe SmartPD was a separate third-party printer driver application for FP DOS. You might want to check it's documentation for this "error". If I remember correctly, it stored it's information in the resource file (Foxuser.dbf), so make sure it's not read-only or the CONFIG.FP isn't pointing into an invalid or unavailable directory (e.g. due to user security).
