Sorry to But in Mark, I haven't been following this thread iether but
perhaps the following procedure has something in it to help you. It selects
the printer Index for a given printer name... Perhaps it is usefull to you,
else sorry for wasting space.
procedure SelectPrinter(PrinterName: string; QR: TQuickRep);
begin
if PrinterName = '' then
Printer.PrinterIndex := -1
else
if Printer.Printers.IndexOf(PrinterName) >= 0 then
Printer.PrinterIndex := Printer.Printers.IndexOf(PrinterName)
else
raise Exception.Create('Invalid Printer');
if QR <> nil then
QR.PrinterSettings.PrinterIndex := Printer.PrinterIndex;
end;

Max,
If it is not too much trouble I would appreciate this code, if you think it
will
fix my problem.
Were you following this thread from the start, and know the symptoms I
described? I can resend if you like
Thanks
Mark
