Good afternoon list,<br>
<br>
Is it just me or has activity just died?<br>
<br>
Anyway, my question.<br>
<br>
First our system, 4 server Win 2003 using fpodbc and Print Wizard.<br>
<br>
I have 2 users that sometime print report to their printer and then again would rather print to a pdf. We use Print Wizard.<br>
<br>
In the past I set up 2 batch files, one for each operation. I also have set up 2 copies of each report; 1 with the pdf defintion and 1 with the users HP printer type.<br>
<br>
My question is if use only 1 batch file but on the menu line defined a script (F5) and added the Print Wizard pfpostprint as seen below, run the rreport then added another pfpostprint to set the state back to printer; would that work?<br>
<br>
I probably would have to set pfprinter 2 times as well.<br>
<br>
set pfpostprint=C:\Program Files\Rasmussen Software, Inc\Print Wizard 4\printwiz /fpDF://V:\rickpdf\<br>
<br>
Thank in advance,<br>
