It is not a Windows 7 problem.
I store printer names in a table to allow for printing reports to different
printers.
I recently upgraded my computer and the printer driver was named a bit

When I updated the table with the new driver name all is working good again.

I haven't heard of our Windows 7 users having this problem.
Do you have a printer setup up on the system?
Has the spooler errored and needs to be restarted?

Hello,
I am getting an error on the SET PRINTER TO NAME command in Windows 7.
"Error accessing printer spooler"
The help says an internal call to the GetPrinter() function has failed.
This works in XP and Vista, so something is different in 7.
This is old code and just found the er
ueue. When someone wants to print a purchase order they just
pick a printer from the list presented to them. If they print to one
our canon printers called CLC3200 what happens is that I have set up a
second printer CLC3200-2 which prints to exactly the same place but is
defined as duplex. E.g

Devendra,
Excellent tip and welcome to Profox!

This is a problem when Getprinter() is called.
You can provide a printer name otherwise also. Provide a combo with
installed printerlist on report screen. Populate the combo with
Aprinter(). For all report get printer name from this combo

Kent,
I just ran into this same problem. The user clicks on a button to "set up

problem I have is that, even though they set the properties as d
