Printing a Visual FoxPro Report in Text Mode

Question:
My reports are printed in graphic mode. Is there a way to print my reports in text mode?

Answer:
The REPORT FORM command has a parameter called “ASCII” that writes the report in text mode. Realize, however, that none of the graphics will be in the report.

Here is an example of writing a report out to a text file using the ASCII parameter:

REPORT FORM myreport ASCII TO FILE myfile.txt
