Yes , I am aware of the search engine and I already used it before posting, all it found was one DEAD link. I was trying to find out if anyone else (new) might know something and not post it before. IS anyone printing from DB Pro now ??

I heard once of a bootleg way of doing it by writing your data to a text file, opening the text file in notepad, and then printing it from there... I forget all the commands needed but theres a way to do it all from DBP.

I think that I had better use notepad, too.

A color and size of a letter,
I think that I had better use .html file to handle this.
It performs "the printer output" with IE.
This is not difficult.
