My use is low volume. The printing will be on pre-perforated 8.5 x 11 stock in a laser printer. Tearing on the perfs will give me 3.66 x 8.5 and a manual cut at 6.75 will let it fit into an envelope without needing to be folded. The real issue is the text boxes and rotated text. Thanks - Joe

Yes .. with VFP 9 SP2 you can do rotated text. The "Advanced" tab has an option for Rotation. You have to realize, though, that it does so by using the fxListener class and a few other classes in the _ReportListener class library in the FFC directory which means you have to be sure to include this
