Are you trying to print on the server or the client?

From the server
i got: Error 1001: Feature is not available
when i do: REPORT FROM report1 TO PRINTER NOCON

I know I can't use function like MessageBox.. or other visual command..
because it's COM..

if it can't use display, printer.. maybe all others use interface.. why use
COM ??

Another prob...
i can't do SET PATH TO "C:\" or SET DEFAULT TO "C:\".. path not found..
I tryed to add everyone in Admin Group .. to be sure it's not a rights
prob..
??

Yes, to do this in a .VFP. mtdll you have to put the REPORT FORM in a COM
EXE and call its methods from your .VFP. mtdll web service. I've done this
and it works great. Check out the Microsoft article on this:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;191639
For the other problem, make sure you're using the vfp Session Class. It
takes care of a lot of these little things. I usually do something like
this to set the base path:
oProp.AppStartPath=JUSTPATH(APPLICATION.SERVERNAME)+"\"

Local COM don't solve the prob.. but it's a workaround..
