Print Report Default to A4

[bebbo]

All my reports default to Letter page. How do I set the default to be A4. Probably an easy question but I keep on failing.

This is done in Windows, outside of FoxPro. Just get into the properties of your default printer and set paper size to A4.

Hi

The windows default printer is set to A4 however when I run a report from my Foxpro program it reverts it to Letter. Any ideas why this should do this.

How do you know what paper size the report thinks it's printing on? Do you have different trays with different papers?

This information is stored with the print driver info in the FRX. You'll need to leave the PAPER settings in the EXPR field of the FRX.

Thanks

By using the program to hack the FRX files it fixed my problem. Only problem I've got now is for the QA dept to test 160 reports. Thanks
