Dear List: A guy in India with whom I'm developing a preventive maintenance app is using A4 paper. The report I sent him apparently doesn't print the whole footer unless he changes the printer. He writes: "The problem still persisted of the report saying only "page no 1 of " and not showing the total no of pages and of the second page being a blank, but third page showing the second page (all this only in the mtce sch. report). I have found the cause. I found that the page set up was landscape and letter size. I changed the letter size to A4 and everything became ok! But I am not able to make it permanent - when I ask for the report the next time, the same problem. I had to again reset the page size. How do I make it stick?" But the other reports in the system apparently work OK. The File-->Page Setup parameters are the as the other reports - default printer is checked - except this one is landscape. Any ideas?

Ram: The graph can be done but it's not real easy in Access. On the X axis you would also lose visibility of what machines were creating the scores on the Y axis. The X axis would just be a sequence number. Wouldn't seeing the list of machines with description be more helpful. >From an information standpoint the graph will only show the user that the scores of the machines run from m to n. So they will be picking an arbitrary point between the lowest and highest value without much visibility over the nature of the equipment that's being included and excluded. I will do a bit of research to see if there's a graphing control I can find so I don't have to reinvent the wheel. Then maybe put an button on the form to let the user choose tabular of graphic format. Requiring administrator access to change the cutoff point is easy. I'll attend to that. What's the next step?
