  Yes.  On The Fly Printing from ATTAC consulting works exactly that way for
MDE's.  They provide their own print dialog and capture all the settings to
a usys<> table to hold all the settings.

 Currently I have the report to print straight to the printer. I can change
it to preview to accomplish this. But is it possible to save the margin
settings to a table and then have the report use those so?
