This should be easy but for some reason I'm not seeing the answer. After I use PrintRect() to draw a box on a page, how do I locate the pen so that my Print_Text() prints inside the box? None of the Print functions have location parameters except PrintRect().

Wayne,
It looks like you need to do a Print_Text() first when you already have the position of the cursor where you need it and then follow up with the PrintRect() command. Hopefully the PrintRect() won't hide your Print_Text() output.
If you are serious about programming your forms/reports and you really want good control and flexibility then you should invest in the OpenInsight Printer Interface (OIPI). This is a third party add-on product from Splaver Software. You can download a free evaluation copy.
