Re :Printer setup at main menu

[Henry]

Hi there, I have a system to let user key in different report in ifferent database, and after they key in, i have a function/button to let them print the report, now i want to let user set the printer setup on the main menu, and after setting, all the related files/database will also use the same setting. I have try but the setting only can run on the main menu file, the other related files still need to set again. Is that have any solution about this problem?

Regards,

Henry

Henry,

I am afraid that you cannot achive this. FileMaker keeps separate page setup for each individual file.

The way to go would be to print only from a single file. This is not uncommon solution - create a Reports.fp5 file, and use it for printing everything. You can populate data into the Reports.fp5 file by relationships, or by imports.

Hope this helps...
