I looked in the archives and Google, but did not find what I was looking for. In designing and testing of reports, I will click on file/print to print the report. To save paper, I generally will go to options (on the print dialog) and tell it to print double-sided. Many times, this value will stick on the report. If I do not remember later to go and change this back to non-duplex, it prints that way by default. In researching this, I saw some things that allowed you to change various printer values, but the implication was that these changes were actually changing the values in the design of the report. We distribute MDEs for our application. Is there some method that can be used in an MDE that will, upon opening the report, change the report to print in simplex (I think that's the right word) mode? The user would be free to change that in their options when they go to print. I just want to make sure that duplex is off when previewing it or printing it directly. Thanks, Bobby
