I am fairly new to FM - I have been handed a system with many 'Print Setup[Restore,No dialog]' script steps. I wish to establish what settings were saved when the script was saved. How do I do this - all the documentation is silent on this point ?

There are two options (tick boxes) which are shown when you use Print Setup function.

Uncheck the 'Perform without dialogue' tick box. then run the script. This should then come up with the print setup window showing the print setup.

hope this helps,

I suspected this would be the only answer- a slightly long-winded solution - but never mind - and thanks.

For future use, make as many Page Setup scripts as you need and then use those scripts within other scripts instead of Page Setup. That is, first adjust your Page Setup as desired, e.g., vertical, 100%, curent record, then create a script with just the single line Page Setup (restore, no dialog). Call it Vertical 100% current record. Now wherever you have a script that needs to Print the current record, use Perform Script (Vertical 100% current record). It makes your scripts much easier to maintain.

Also, add comments within these subscripts listing what the exact setting are, so that you don't find yourself in the same situation later.

"I wish to establish what settings were saved when the script was saved."

Print the script's definition. Look in the print dialog box for the option.
