David, My apologies Martine and anyone at Okna who misinterpreted my comment about Konstantin being able to answer my calculator question without even thinking about it. I wasn't comparing Martine's DTS knowledge to Konstantin's — only suggesting someone who might know the answer without having to invest any time in research. I can see, as evidenced by her prompt replies, Martine is professional and helpful, as has been my experience with all those associated with OKNA. I am sure she is also a nice lady. However, I'm not sure of the market potential for her Medieval C language <g>. Anyway, back to the tape calculator. I asked Konstantin about this a long time ago when I first experienced the problem (this was also before I realized changing the printer orientation to landscape "fixed" it). He said, even though he was also printing to an HP4, that he did not experience the problem. My discovery this past week of the orientation thing made me think the difference was in a setting between my DTS and Konstantin's. Unfortunately, the setup dialog in Tape Calculator provides no page setup options. Calendar is the only module I use to any extent. I haven't checked this yet but, I hope to find some setup command in Phone Book or Letters to have an effect on Tape Calculator's printing. Phone Book was what Konstantin developed first, so it is logical that a link may be there. If you have an opportunity to ask Konstantin or learn anything further, please let me know. John
