Hi everyone. When I want to print something from Microsoft Project 98 and I change the paper size,lets say to A3 in the print properties it changes the print properties on the default printer in the control panel. This means when I want to print anything else from any other program it will print automatically to A3. What can I do to solve this?
Cheers
Dave

When you are in a program and you want to change the type of paper that you want it to print out on, it is better to change it using "page setup", and not properties within the print options. The reason is this: When you go into properties within the print menu, you are actually going to the printer properties of whatever printer you are using, and you are not changing the print properties for that one print-out, which is what you want to do.

I am not that familiar with the workings of Project 98, but check and see if it has an option within the file menu in which it allows you to specify how you want the paper set-up. "Page Setup" would be its Microsoft Office Suite equivalent.
