Printing lanscape/legal in Pdox8 with Win2000 doesn't work?

One of our user's had their PC upgraded to Win 2000 when their hard drive crashed. Now she can't print any legal/lanscape reports in Pdox8. I've tested it on other Win2000 machines and none of them will print the legal/lanscape properly. Landscape works, but it won't grab paper from the legal tray. Is there a patch or fix for this? It works fine in Win98 but they want to upgrade our user's to 2000 and this is a definite roadblock. Thanks,
Jeff.

Make sure you have applied the service packs.

There are known problems in version 8 regarding printing landscape. Here is an FAQ that might offer some solutions.

We have loaded the service packs and landscape is not really a problem. It's trying to get Paradox to print on the legal paper through Win2000 is not working. It looks like the SetPrinterOptions code does not work in Win2000. Is anyone else experiencing this?
