You could use the PROMPT clause of the REPORT command. This way the page setup dialog will automatically appear before printing. Check out help on "REPORT".
When you start a modal form, you can't activate any menu options any more (I think). A solution that worked in previous versions of foxpro : create the menu AFTER you start the modal form (e.g. in the Init()-event of the form), and release it again in the Release()-event of the form.
You can select recto-verso printing in the page setup dialog box if your printer supports that. I don't know if it is possible to do this manually, by printing the odd page numbers first, re-inserting the paper and then printing the even pages.
Hope this helps...
Marc.
