The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5, 2.5a, and 2.5b

SUMMARY
In FoxPro for Windows, the SET PDSETUP TO  command selects only an existing MS-DOS style printer driver. It cannot edit an existing MS- DOS style printer driver or create a new one.

MORE INFORMATION
To use the SET PDSETUP TO  command in FoxPro for Windows, the current resource file (by default FOXUSER.DBF and its associated memo file, FOXUSER.FPT) must already have an MS-DOS style printer driver loaded. This MS-DOS style printer driver must have been previously created by FoxPro for MS-DOS.

FoxPro for Windows normally uses Windows printer drivers for all its printing. Windows printer drivers are changed through the Windows Control Panel.

Only use the SET PDSETUP TO  command with character-based reports that were created in FoxPro for MS-DOS.

NOTE: The SET PDSETUP  command has no effect on Windows printer drivers.
