I am trying to use sys(1037) to select a different
printer and it seems to work just fine. Problem is
I need to know which printer was selected. Is there
a foxtools or gui call to see this ? I am in windows
9x & 2000 platforms.

Thanks for any help.
 
Try SYS(6) This system routine returns the current printer location (in character format). If you are on a network, then each printer should have a unique id, so this should work.
