I am helping a friend with an old system. What's the best way to print DOS reports on a Novell network. And then be able to paste the results into a Word document.

Thanks,

Perry
 
? did you give yourself a star for asking the question ?
 
Perry,
The "best" way to do this is to write the report out to a file, and then import it into Word. Since I'm assuming that you are using FoxPro DOS, there is no direct way to get to Word a Windows app. Now if you want to use VFP 7.0/8.0, it's a whole different question.

Yes, print to file. The load it to Word. But you may need to work on the alignment and formats.
