Greetings all!

(I'm Using VFP 6.0 with SP5)

I have a client who prints a pre-printed tractor feed form on a Lexmark 2381 Plus dot matrix printer. When I design a report as Letter - landscape, it prints the text at right angles to the form (as it would, correctly, in a laster printer).

Here's the problem:
I found a lexmark 2391 printer driver with a paper size of Letter Tranverse 11x8.5. I have the report designer open. I select File-Page Setup. I click on Print Setup, select the Lexmark 2391, select the Tranverse 11 x 8.5 paper size, click OK. Back in the Page Setup screen, the COLUMNS box shows 1 column with a width of 8.5". When I try to increase the width to 11", it will not let me go beyond 8.5" !!!!!!!. I tried this also with the US Std Fanfold, Tabliod 11 x 17, and no matter what, it won't let me go past 8.5".

Anyone have any other suggestions on how to make this form work for my client?

Thanks in advance for your assistance!!
