OK - I'll try this another way.

A ruler is set on top of a richviewedit control.

Let's imagine that I have the margins set for both such that the document in

the print preview screen shows text wrapping at the same point as how it is

visible in the control.

Now - you execute the printer setup dialog and change the paper from

portrait to landscape. The Ruler is set to autoupdateprinerwidth and the

ruler right margin jumps out to reflect the landscape page. Fine.

But the text in the richview edit control remains as if it thinks it's

formatted for the portrait page.

So how do you adjust the control to jump to a landscape layout when it's

portrait and back again when it's changed back?

For both page layouts my left/right footer header Ymm/MM margins will remain

the same, just the text I want to re-format back and forth.

thanks
