I would, I stumbled over ScriptX every time I was thinking about my 
printing problems, but the customer is not accepting us to use any ActiveX 
component, that needs to be installed. That's why I ended up with using 
the ActiveX-Control "InternetExplorer.Application" which IS installed.

True for IE 5.0 and thats why I'm looking for a way to do an automated 
PageSetup. The IE 5.5 is more friendly here and looks reads out the 
registry whenever using these parameters.
