Script to load browse mode with zoom 1x view

[lester]

Can anyone please explain the steps for creating a script where my database will open in browse mode with 1x zoom view?

This will help me out alot since the text is so small now after I had to drop from 12 font to 10 font for printing. All the fields were not showing up in printed lists. I don't want to have 2 different layouts. Just open in browse with 1x zoom view.

Any ideas how to remove the big, white empty area on the right side that is left over from when I moved the fields to fit on preview mode for printing? Even with 1x zoom, there is still a good size blank area on the right, but not as bad as with no zoom.

Thanks.

You *want* two different layouts. The best way to go is to have a separate "data entry" layout that is viewed on the screen, and a "print" layout optimised for printing.

Create a script to do the printing (changes layout, prints, changes back to original layout) and put a PRINT button on your data entry layput for people to click on.
