lost printer settings

[Matthew Snook]

I have a report which is printed to a Dymolabel printer. After much wrangling, I have managed to get the margins, paper size, and all the settings so that they will work.

When I send a copy of this database to somebody else with an identical printer (I bought them both) the report goes to the right printer, but with the margins all messed up so that the printer cranks out about 10 pages of report bits instead of the one label that I get here at home.

How do I specify report page setup and printer settings in the code, so that even on another machine the report comes out as it does here?

Thanks,

Matthew Snook

No, unfortunately. Mom has XP and I'm running 2000 pro server. I hadn't thought of that. Would that make the report lose it's printer settings?

Pat - where'd you learn that trick?

Thanks much for the info, I'm going to give it a try.
