Ah that little beastie. I've removed the silly message and found a
better way to calculate actual paper measurements. Ain't it always the
same. I agonised over that for at least three days before giving up
and putting that message in so I'd at least know when it was going
badly wrong. Today it solved itself in ten minutes flat (fingers
crossed)...

Oops, I had an integer holding a bitmap handle.

Very odd. I assume you didn't mean the "Read the Manual" button as
well. If the "Record Dump" button does it as well, that narrows things
down alot.
Do you mean a "Fatal Database Error: bad record number" followed by a
divide by zero error? Can you send me the ex.err file please.
Thanks,
Pete

Thanks for the ex.err files. What is happening is your default paper
is Letter & I'm trying to get the defaults for A4; but Windows returns
the size of Letter, which I dutifully save in the database, and later
fail trying to fetch the defaults for A4 paper...
It may take me a while to figure out how to get the printer info I
need (without popping up a page setup dialogue and asking the user to
select A4), and of course I need that since the sample reports are A4.
Meanwhile, if you temporarily set the default paper on the printer to
A4, and run the demo, it should be OK if you then set the printer
paper back to Letter, if you want.
Regards,
Pete
