[AccessD] Urgent one please - Page Setup settings revert todefaultwhen report closes

Hi Lembit - yes it is set to standard printer. I wanted to avoid setting it to a specific printer - can't I do that? It will make it harder to distribute that way.....

  Kath,
  this sounds to me that the report in question is set to STANDARD PRINTER.
  probably other programs influence the standard printer as well.

  set your report to specific printer and then save it
  This should save all the parameters like landscape then.
