Jeff,
        Depending on the type of output you need, I have developed a "hybrid" SQR
that works along with DOS to route reports to various network printers.  It
uses the line printer type of output (which isn't pretty or anything) but is
still effective.  I'd be happy to explain more if you're interested.

> Here is my problem.
I am trying to figure out a way to for one sqr report to print to a
serveral printers.  I am running NT4.0 and the printer path will be
defined in a table with a key that is selected in the SQR.  Is there a
way to define the printer in the sqr itself.  I have been looking at
declare-printer but have
a feeling I am on the wrong track.  I know you can define the printer
path and name on the command
line of the sqrw.exe but this will not work unless I have a sqr for
every single printer that I want to print to.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
