Before viewing or printing, use PRTINFO(2) to find the size of the paper (see the help file for a list of codes).

>I have developed an electronic sign-off app for our Engineering Department. The Engineering Change Record can be an "A" size(8.5X11) or a "B" size(11X17). If I am viewing these reports and my default printer is set to a printer that doesn't support the larger format I get an error that says detail band to to large. What I need is some way to tell if the report will generate an error and give the user the option to change the default printer in VFP before the report is accessed.
