Printing paper size

[peggypph]

I designed a report that use specific paper size. So I define this paper size named "CPC DN" under "Control panel" -> printer. In the report set up design, I use "CPC DN" as paper size. It works fine in my PC("development PC"). But when I copy to another PC ("client PC") which I define the same "CPC DN" under "Control panel" -> printer, that report automatically change my report paper size to "Letter". The page margin is correct. For your information, the environment of both PC are MS Windows 2000. The program/reports are designed in my development PC using Access 2002. In the client PC, it is installed with Access 2002 run time.

Any help or need to code in the report as "me.printer.papersize......."

I am frustrated with this issue. Pls. help!

Resetting Printer Object

Hi,

I had a simular problem in my development access.
I couldn't set the paper size to any other setting the lettre. Everytime I changed it to "A4", it was reset back to lettre though my application.printer.papersize and application.reports("xxx").printer.papersize returned the A4 value.

I solved it by setting it to a specific printer and then I defined in the printers properties to use the A4 size. I then changed the printer back to the default and the papersize finally stayed.

I hope this gives you a clue to sort your problem.
