I am rewriting a Fox2.6 system to VFB5.0. But in the course of time I needed to print barcode stickers from the existing system which is dosbased from the win95 clients.The dos based sysyem does not support to print barcode as because the exiosting barcode program is now a TSR program.
Oh!The stickers which I am referring to is printed in a dot matrix printer and in a contineous sheet .
Now what I did I took all the datas from dosbased system and passed the data under a tmpfile to the VFB5.0 excutable where I am doing the processing and printing the barcode stickers.For printing the Barcode I am just difing the Barcode Font with the numeric string.

Problem Facing-------
1) First I tried to print the stickers by report designer.But even if I made the "Printable Area"=Whole page---the printer is giving a breakline after each page length,which is defined by selection of the page.Then I tried to select the page length as custom.But the main problem is the custom page lenght have to vary depeding upon the number of sticker printed and which I cannot do it dynamically.
2)so I tried to hard code the whole format and tried to print.The result is the same


Can some body give the solution how to override the skiping after each page so that it prints stickers for each record in the tmpfile/cursor contineously without break till the EOF()
