Sorrells v. State, 218 Ga. App. 413 (1) ( 461 SE2d 904) (1995).Moreland v. State, 213 Ga. App. 75 (1) ( 443 SE2d 701) (1994). BLACKBURN, Presiding Judge.
Here there was no showing that the first counsel had sought the transcript, and the new counsel made only a single request for the transcript with no follow-up in the two weeks before trial. Moreland v. State, 213 Ga. App. 75, 76 (2) ( 443 S.E.2d 701) (1994); cf. Kier v. State, 240 Ga. App. 152, 153 (S.E.2d) (1999). See Bearden, supra, slip op. at 6 ("[t]he party requesting the continuance must show that he exercised due diligence.") (footnote omitted); compare Coaxum v. State, 146 Ga. App. 370, 371 (4) ( 246 S.E.2d 403) (1978) (counsel made repeated requests over a one-year period for transcripts).
Defendant challenges this order in his sole enumeration or error, pertinently arguing that the trial court's ruling cut off the only effective means he had for impeaching the State's only eyewitness. We will not set aside a trial court's denial of an indigent defendant's motion for a free transcript absent an abuse of discretion. Moreland v. State, 213 Ga. App. 75, 76 (2) ( 443 S.E.2d 701). But we will measure the trial court's discretion by the standard set out in Britt v. North Carolina, 404 U.S. 226 ( 92 S.Ct 431, 30 L.E.2d 400). The United States Supreme Court held in Britt that two factors are relevant to evaluating an indigent defendant's claim to a free transcript: (1) the transcript's value in connection with the defendant's trial or appeal, and (2) the accessibility of other means that would fulfill the same functions as a transcript. Id. at 227, supra.

Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560); Rauls v. State, 209 Ga. App. 101, 102 (2) ( 432 S.E.2d 677)." Moreland v. State, 213 Ga. App. 75 (1) ( 443 S.E.2d 701). 2.
For a conviction to be reversed, appellant must show both error and harm. See Moreland v. State, 213 Ga. App. 75 ( 443 S.E.2d 701) (1994); Gann v. State, 190 Ga. App. 82 ( 378 S.E.2d 369) (1989). Such impeachment, while improper, did not rise to the level of reversible error.
