Printing of headers and footers

I am trying to use the pwb.ini to NOT have headers and footers. I have tried putting ;header= and header= but I still get a header. How can I get rid of it entirely? I am using PWB 2.06.

thanks

In PWB v2.09 or earlier, a blank setting in any of the [PageSetup] keys will result in the functionality being disabled. This has been changed in PWB v2.10 to allow for a blank field.

As a work around you can use just a "&" in the key to prevent the header from being printed.

[PageSetup]
UseCustom=True
Footer=&
Header=&
...

Thanks, Scott. That works ok. Oddly enough when I print from PWB with the & and &, the page prints on 2 pages (2nd page mostly blank) but when I use IE and remove the & from the header and footer it fits on one page.

I can live with that but just thought I would mention it.

Instead of using the PWB setting, you can also set it in the registry directly.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup

Header=""

The only problem with this is it is a user setting and can be changed by the user.

Just make sure you set the custom page setup in PWB to false, or PWB will change it back.
