A frequent process I use, is to create spreadsheets displaying tables and graphs. The data comes from the results of querying VFP tables and are then written directly to Excel templates using COM.

This must sound a familiar task for many readers.

All was well until I upgraded the PC I am using. A side effect of the upgrade was that the page formatting of the spreadsheets changed slightly. This change was sufficient to make graphs straddle two pages. If readers of the sheet wish to print them out (they are reports), they have to delete lines in order to make the graphs fit the page.

Strange as it may seem, the screen resolution for both PCs was the same, the version of Excel was the same and I was using the same Excel template.

Does anyone have any idea what is going on and how I can overcome the problem.

Michael
