How Do I Keep My Report Settings across Printers? - URGENT

[NattyP]

I have several reports that are formatted for legal-sized paper. When the user previews the report it is displayed as letter-size. I have noticed that unless I tell Access to use a specific printer for a report, and set the orientation and size with that specific printer the user may see something else.

I have 2 questions.

1) Is there anyway that I can get the report to keep it settings without it being tied to a specific printer?

2) Can I set the paper settings on the default printer at the time the report is about to previewed or printed from code?

Your URGENT reponses would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Natty

Here's a link on how to change the printer or printer's information with code:

Hope this helps.

I had a report that wouldn't save landscape vs portrait, solved it by turning off track auto name, this might help, Ron
