Printer "resource busy" in WIN 98/2000 with Foxpro 2.6

[kllick123]

Hi,

I am using *.prg to print the report in foxpro 2.6 in win98/win2000

First I had created a report with many fonts and size and run the report to the printer using set device to print.

Once the printing is finished, I run the second report which I am sending to printer using the following command

TYPE a.txt >prn

But at this stage, FOX/WIN says "resource busy"

If I wait for 1 hour also (after the first print is over) then also It gives the same message "resource busy"

So, I had to quit the application and login again to give the second report.

I will be greatefull to get the solution for the same.


Thanks

Hi,

Try
TYPE a.txt TO PRINTER

If you don't want to print the heading, SET HEADING OFF.
