I just upgraded a system from VFP ver 6 to ver 9. Since this upgrade, when I issue a repo form priner prompt, the win2pdf printer (used for sending email) is selected & not the default printer of that workstation. How can this be rectified so that the default printer of that workstation is selected?

thank you
 
Have you tried setting the report behavior to version 80 first

SET REPORTBEHAVIOR 80
repo form priner prompt
SET REPORTBEHAVIOR 90

This is probably because the report has a "printer environment", which is pointing to a specific printer.

To rectify it, go to the report menu (in the report designer), remove the tick against Printer Environment, and save the report.
