You cannot print a plain unformatted report to a file in FoxPro for Macintosh (139144)

WORKAROUND

You can use one of the following workarounds:

• Use the TEXT ... END TEXT commands.
• Code the reports manually.
• Obtain the third-party program PRINT2PICT. PRINT2PICT is a shareware printer driver extension published by a vendor independent of Microsoft. It previews and saves printed pages to a PICT file format. This extension requires System 7 or later and has online Help available. Support for this product is provided by its author, not by Microsoft. Any issues resulting from the use of this product should be referred to the author of PRINT2PICT. For more information on this utility, you can reach the author, Baudouin Raoult, at the following address:

Although it doesn't make use of a report, another workaround is to use a SQL SELECT statement to create a text file from a data source. For example, you could use the following statement to place data from the Customer table into a text file named Test.txt:

   SELECT * FROM customer NOCONSOLE TO FILE test.txt
