Thank you for the tips about printing a form, Bruce. I must say, however,
I'm puzzled about the strong opinions about printing forms. MS obviously
thinks there's some value in it, or else they wouldn't have provided a print
command for a form view. If I were only using Outlook to develope more or
less complete apps for others I would probably agree. But I use it for *a
lot* of quick and dirty work, and at some stage in the work, just dumping
the data (preferably w/o a form view spanning two pages) is quite helpful.

Sorry if I offended some folks' senses of design and order.
