For Win98

In Application
File
Print
Printer Properties
Select Portrait or Landscape
(May Be In Sub-Menu Depending
On Printer Type)
(If printer can't do landscape
selection won't be available)

From DOS
Depends On Printer
If your are using a PCL compatible page
printer you can insert printer commands
with in you FoxBase program and call as
procedure DO NORMAL, DO LANDSCAPE, DO
LINEPRINTER, etc.

PCL page printers are HP Laserjets, and can
be fully programmed in orientation, font,
pitch, linespacing, etc. See HP PCL Manual
or one of The LaserJet Handbooks.

or Sideways (old DOS program which took text
file and created a bitmap image to print
landscape. Works with Dot Matrix. I don't
know about ink jets. Very slow.
