It's set to normal. Here is an example. <font size="1">blah blah</font> shows the exact same as <font size="2">blah blah</font>

That just changes the "text size". My problem is the "medium" text size is incorrect. Its bigger than it is supposed to be.

At work I'm using a machine with WinXP Pro that was used by someone else before me. For some reason the text size in IE (and in some other places) is larger then normal. I have the &quot;text size&quot; set to medium under the &quot;view&quot; menu. If I actually move it to...

I am printing 68 lines on longer paper that WILL fit all the text. But the printer always stops printing at the regular point of a standard page. I have tried using _plength but it isnt doing anything. Should I be looking into using PCL codes again?

Actually I am now using: @0,0 SAY CHR(27)+&quot;&l1E&quot; Before PRINTJOB and it is working. Thanks for the help

I'm using: @0,0 SAY CHR(027)+CHR(038)+CHR(108)+CHR(048)+CHR(069) But it is still printing a 1/4&quot; top margin. Any ideas?

Im using the @ SAY. How exactly do I send a PCL string?

Im using dBase IV and printing on an HP laserjet. My problem is I need to print at the very top of the page but it is always putting a about half inch margin. How can I set the top margin so it prints from the very top? Is this even possible?

I really appreciate the reply. You have start a spark for me to look into Visual FoxPro. I really had not thought about it. The main issue is printing and being able to create libraries that I can also be use from a web environment. Thanks again for the reply. Derek

Well the time has finally come. I have been given to start planning our new system. From what I understand (I have only been at this position for a little less then a year) the orignal system was written in the early 90's dBase IV and has been way outgrown and outdated as you can imagine. So...

Thanks for the reply. Once this arises I give your suggestions a shot. Usually rebooting the workstation does the trick, but for some odd reason, sometimes it doesnt help. As for the &quot;file not found&quot; error, I heard this could because of connection issues?

I should aso mention that we are using netware.

In a multiuser environment, sometimes out of nowhere we will get &quot;file not found&quot; error when trying to USE a DBF on a central server. It is totally out of nowhere. All day it will work, and then randomly we will get &quot;file not found&quot;. I dont know if the two are related, but...

Problem solved. I had to add the &quot;-3&quot; switch when calling pkunzip. This is odd because I don't have to use it when I call pkunzip from the dos prompt. Anyways the &quot;-3&quot; is for: &quot;Disable 32-bit instruction usage on 80386 or higher CPU's&quot;

It is pkunzip that is causing my problems. If i call any other program it works. If i create a batch file that contins has just &quot;pkunzip&quot; in it, and i call that batch file, it crashes. What other dos program can i use to unzip?
