Printing Tabbed forms in Landscape

In design view, goto File|Page SetUp... and select either Landscape or Portrait. Now when you print the form, it will be printed as you specified.
However, you might consider creating a report that displays the information that is shown on the form. Seledom does a form looks as good printed as it does on the screen.
To do this, create a report(s) that contains the information you want to present (basically everything that's on the form). Next, add a few buttons to your toolbar (and/or menubar) (i.e. Print, Print Preview, etc.) When the user selects one of these buttons, open your report and use the Where argument of the OpenReport method (or filter the report) based on the record shown on the form.
