Hi Sarah,
One way to approach this is to design your reports with the lowest common denominator of the two pages in mind - 210 mm wide (A4 vs Letter's 216) by 279 mm high (Letter vs A4's 297). Remove printer-specific information from the FRX file and the report will print based on the user's default printer's paper size. Either way, the report will fit.
Sure beats maintaining two copies of each report.
Cheers,
Andrew

If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
