Hello All,
Is there any way to use EXECUTE REPORT with default page setting. BTW, I can use default printer as follows but not default page setting.
Thanks in advance.
With best regards.

I'm not sure to understand your question...

Roberto, me imagino que lo que pregunta SUDIP es que así como le podemos indicar que use la impresora por defecto de windows, también se le pueda indicar que use la configuración de página que tiene por defecto ese impresora, como por ejemplo: A4 y HORISONTAL.
Creo que es eso.

Eso no es posible por el momento.
That is not possible by the moment.

Is it possible to execute report on defafault paper setting by the end user?
Code: Select all
BEGIN LAYOUT
PAPERSIZE <nValue>
ORIENTATION <nValue>
[ PAPERWIDTH <nValue> ]
[ PAPERLENGTH <nValue> ]
END LAYOUT
In my very humble opinion, it will be possible if PAPERSIZE and ORIENTATION are optional in above commands.
(Sometimes, I am afraid, why I can't explain easily? May be I am suffering too much tension...!!!

That is not possible currently.
Moreover, a report is supposed to be designed to work with a specific paper size.
Remember that you specify row and col positions for each element, so considering an 'automatic' report length using the default printer page length (changing automatically detail lines count to be printed), you will have a problem related with the width ('col' and 'width' for each element specified in the report).
So, this feature, if eventually added, could work for length but it could bring width problems.
