barb,
thanks for the response, but that was one of the things i tried, (of course i'll re-confirm in the am). the problem was not the inability to print, but that i seemed locked into a specific page length, that i cannot adjust.

isn't there some method to manually set a form size? something non-standard? i would think that this would be done in vfp rather than leaving it to the canned sizes that bill lets us have...

any suggestions?

jim
