subject: Print merge labels

	I can set up a report for labels to be print merge with a data base 
and the first page of 30 print perfectly, but all succeeding pages are 
compressed to the left and don't line of on the labels.  Anybody got any 
ideas as to what is wrong.  I am using the first version of Paradox for 
windows.  
	Thanks in advance for any help.

I believe that there were some problems with Paradox for Windows report
printing in the first version (typical of your problem). I urge you to
upgrade... In version 5.0 that type of thing is preset for you...

Subj: Delphi

Rheza,
 
 RJ> What is Delphi ? I know it is a Borland product, 
 RJ> something like a development tool...
Delphi is a code name for an unreleased application development environment 
to be released by Borland, according to the trades, sometime early next year. 
 It's received a lot of press over the last couple of months and even won the 
"Best New Technology" Award at COMDEX, not bad for a product that hasn't even 
been released.
 
Specific details are still sketchy, though there do appear to be some 
consistent tidbits appearing in the magazines.  It's a Windows-hosted, visual 
application development environment whose programming language is based on 
(or is) ObjectPascal.  Now, that me be off-putting at first, but (again, 
according to press reports) the underlying language isn't as crucial as you 
might think.  apparently, Delphi redefines the visual programming metaphor 
into such an
easy to use package that (reportedly) supports VBX's and OCX's, that the
underlying language isn't as important as one might think.
 
I've seen a lot of reports on what Delphi is supposed to do, ranging from 
killing Visual Basic (by producing small .EXE's, rather than requiring a
runtime module) to killing PowerBuilder, by providing BDE and OCX/VBX 
controls for data access to any local, remote, or OBDC data type.
 
Who knows, really, save the folks working on it at Borland.  I'd suggest 
spending a couple of hours going through some recent weekly trade press and a 
few of the latest monthlies.  Almost everyone has mentioned something about 
Delphi, so its existence isn't much of a secret.  But, the details still are.
Still, if you compare and contrast the info everyone talks about, you'll 
probably get a fairly good picture.
 
Hope this helps...
