I'm continuing to have problems with PrinterSetCurrent()
in an application running under NT with a Novell network.
I'm trying to use Paradox 8.0 but version 5.0 has mysteries too.

Based on an earlier suggestion I had the network administrator
configure LPT1 to be a laser jet printer and LPT2 a dot matrix
Epson (so Paradox could choose LPT1: instead of the NT
Printer port names)

If I call EnumPrinters I get back:
"\\CLIENT-NAME\LASER, HP LaserJet 4M Plus, LPT1:"
and
"\\CLIENT-NAME\LABEL, Epson Fx-850 LPT2:"s

(In fact Paradox 5.0 retuns "winspool" as the second
parameter)

I can't seem to take this returned information and use
PrinterSetCurrent correctly to switch back and forth
between the two network printers.

Any thoughts?
