Greetings!

I am working on a solution for our company. The user enters data, then once a week, it's printed. Pretty simple right? Well, on the report, it needs to be in landscape mode, but for the data entry and one other printout, it needs to be portrait. If I change the 3rd layout for the weekly report, the 1st and 2nd layouts change as well. Any help on making the layouts have separate print setups would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

In your print script, have different [Print Setup] functions. It stores the current Setup at the time that the script is modified. So you can have a master script that runs 3 child scripts. Each one of these child scripts would have a Print Setup function with the Restore Option selected.

Make sure that you are on the layout that you want and then select Print Setup and set it up the way that you want it to Print. Then create a script with a [Print Setup] function call. with Restore checked. Do this for all three scripts. Rememeber it saves it in the layout and when the script was created.

Good luck.

I am going to jump on this post since it is a closely related question. I've used the Print setup [restore] in my scripts for years and everything has worked fine. Recently, there have been all kinds of problems. I have not changed my scripts, but the it will not restore the print option anymore. It is somehow defaulting to whatever the current print setup is. I have even written a new script with the proper print setup, set it on restore and then printed fine. Only when I change the print setup in the drop down menu, the script jumps to the current setup. The file is "hosted" on a local drive and shared through TCP/IP via the FM multi-user sharing. Any ideas?
