Re: Page setup being changed

The plot thickens!!!

I installed the mdb source plus the backend database
on another computer that is connected to my household
network. That computer uses the shared printer on my
machine, so there ought not be any "name" confussions.
Also on that 2nd computer, I deleted and re-installed
the printer so as to insure that the drivers were in sync.
Having full read/write access to both the source mdb
as the frontend and the backend database, the report
continues to preview as "letter". I disabled the "Name
AutoCorrect", but the report continues to preview as
letter.

The printer property *** indicates that the #10
envelope is an enabled feature of the printer, as
viewed from both machines on the network.

As posted yesterday, the systems are Windows XP
Home with O2K-SP3. All updates applied.

Any additional ideas as to what might be causing
the "letter defaulting" on the other machines. (I've not
been able to access the clients machine to investigate
whether disabling the "Name AutoCorrect" would
solve my problem there.)

Thanks,
Bill
