Question : GPO Preferences, Default Printer keeps resetting

I'm testing out mapping my printers using the new GPO Preferences in Server 2008 and all seems to be working fine with the exception of the default printer. I'm not using the GPO to define the default printer, rather allowing the users to define it for themselves. The problem is every time they log back in the default printer is set to the first printer that is mapped.

I've added the printers using the new GPO Preferences in Server 2008 under the User Configuration. I add a new Shared Printer and used the action Replace. Not knowing the specific differences between the actions, Replace sounded like the most logical since I wanted to replace the printers that were created using an old printer scrip (which is no longer being executed).

How do I allow the users to set their own default printers and for that default printer to stay the default after a reboot/log off.

Thanks.

Answer : GPO Preferences, Default Printer keeps resetting

From wikipedia, the definition of computer programming is as follows:
"Computer programming (often shortened to programming or coding) is the process of designing, writing, testing, debugging  / troubleshooting, and maintaining the source code of computer programs"

As you are not creating source code of a computer program, instead you are just retrieving or inputting data into a database, you are not programming when writing SQL.

Programming processes include input>functions>output to get something new from the data which you put into the program in the first place. If you are just sending and retreiving the same data in different forms or places, SQL is not technically programming, just as HTML is coding not programming also. Hope this helps.
