I just converted a Fox 2.0 program that prints invoices on a dot matrix printer. The invoice form is only approximately 2/3 the size of a regular 11 inch page (42 lines long) and is a continuous form.

How can I get the printer to align at the top of each invoice form using the VFP 6.0 report writer? I used to send control codes to the printer to set it up for the shortened invoice form and had no problems. Those same control codes don't seem to work with the new report form.
The control sequence used is as follows:

set print on
??? chr(27) + "C" + chr(42)
set print off



Any ideas would be welcome. Needless to say the client wants to stay with their three part continuous form invoice.


Thanks
