Hello Martin (I cannot get the I correct - sorry):
I started to hack the FRX. Came up with some interesting things. Most of which required me to stand on my head and chant in order to rise to a new level of understanding.
My current chanting has led me to try this:
1. When the client goes to print, does the printer require a movement change? (I'll put into a table or .INI or something on the client system).
2. If no change, use report in application. Get out of this logic.
3. If change, copy the report to a temporary trash name.
4. Make the necessary changes to the left margin and top of the report.
5. Print the report.
6. Remove the trash.
This is where I am at. Seemed so easy back in the 2.6 days... But sometime you need a challenge.
Ray.
