In the listing I did not find custom size. Therefore although I set my pagetemplate to H = 4" and W = 8.5", the paper size still remained Letter (11" x 8.5"). > > With Some experiment on MSword printing, on printer setup , using its property button I could set custom size paper. Applying this with chooseprinter() i was able to successfully get paper size. Later on opening form on design mode, it showed printer property papersize = 128. I dont  know what 128 represents. > 128 is a value your printer has assigned internally to the custom paper size you have created.   If you ever change to a different make of printer it is possible that this number will change.  On my little Canon printer for instance setting a custom paper size gives the pagesize value as 256. Don't worry about it unless you install your program on computers which use a different make of printer. Mervyn.
