Hi All,
I've got a report that prints mailing labels. It utilizes a routine that
asks the number of labels to skip, the number of each label to print, and
then prints. It works really well on a print preview. But,when I print to
the printer it disregards the number of labels to skip.
I preview all the reports I've got and then have a little printer icon to
click on if the user wants to actually print (my attempt at saving trees).
Every other report I've got shows the preview, and then prints successfully
to a printer in a format identical to the preview. So, why would my label
program not print that way? If I choose to skip 5 labels, on the preview it
does...but the printer starts at the top left corner of the page, almost
every time. Sometimes, depending on how many I ask it to skip it'll show up
fine on the preview, but then it'll skip 2 on the printer...but it's never
what I asked for.
So, I guess my question would be why would it work on the preview, and not
on the actual printing? Without posting all the code, modules, etc...can
anyone think of a reason for this?
TIA
