Oh, yes. What a lovely surprise. Our reports (based on the ReportTemplateWin in

Print Sample) print off center now.

I hear this is supposed to be fixed in 3F. I hope so. I'm making another report

now, & it looks terrible.

On a side note, when we went from 2D to 2E, we lost the ability to set some

reports to LANDSCAPE by using a PrintOptionDesc (i think that is the class)

other than the default. Set it in TOOL code & it doesn't keep. It's still that

way in 3E. Keep an eye for that too.
