Can someone tell me what the @PRINTERS property does as used in PRINTSETUP?

Steve,

I'm not sure if you are familiar with User-Defined Properties (UDPs) in OpenInsight or not. As the name implies, these are properties that the developer can create in the code. They are distinguished by having the "@" character at the beginning. Otherwise, they operate very much like the MISC property, which allows you to store whatever information you would like. We use them all the time and for our AREV conversions we use them to simulate Registers, since they are tied directory to a control (i.e. prompt) or window.

Now in the PrintSetup window, it appears that @PRINTERS is where the defined list of printers for the current workstations is stored for future reference.

Thanks Don, I looked all over for something on @Printers but didn't make the connection. I think a reference to mdi window assigned printers that I saw in another post also confused me.

Appreciate all of the help.
