Just wanted you to know that I finally solved my problem and it is an excel
problem. I tried to print out another spreadsheet and it spilled over to a
second page and I noticed that it print the whole row. So I copied and pasted
the entire form on page 2 and it print perfectly. I tried to print another
one out and was one row short and it didn't print in landscape so must assume
that the first 40 rows of the spreadsheet must be corrupted. Do you have a
remedy for this? For all my time, trouble and anxiety, maybe microsoft could
see their way to send me a new program?!
