The only problem with the above approach is that it ASSUMES the same orientation and papersize. What I like to do is apply a few STRTRAN() commands to the EXPR field such as this:

lcExpr = EXPR
lcExpr = STRTRAN(lcExpr, 'DEVICE=', '*DEVICE*=')
lcExpr = STRTRAN(lcExpr, 'DRIVER=', '*DRIVER*=')
lcExpr = STRTRAN(lcExpr, 'OUTPUT=', '*OUTPUT*=')

By wrapping the keywords with asterisks, the VFP Report Writer doesn't recognize these words and just skips that line in the EXPR field. This way you are only stripping out specific lines and everything else stays as it was defined.
