>>A printer driver may report different size of printable area under Win98 and WIn2K. Did you try to run Report Designer under WIn98 to see what the difference is?

>>>Aaaaahhhhhh!

In Win98, your printer share name must not be longer than 8 characters and shouldn't have a space in it. Also, you *might* be able to try SET PRINTER TO NAME (lcTargetLabelPrinter) instead of using a macro. Share names are a still a problem in Win9X.
