From what little info I could find, I had concluded that a
resourse was one option. Under "Customizing the Page Setup
Dialog Box", I located dlgs.h which defines constants for the
templates and PrnSetup.dlg which has some actual templates.

I was specifically looking at PageSetupDlg()

but it too allows for the template to be in memory so that
looks very interesting.

My objective is to combine 2 dialogs - PageSetupDlg and a
TPrintDialog. I can live with them being seperate but
there's a bug with TPrintDialog where the Collate property
always returns false. It may very well be that none of my
printers support Collate and that's why it's always false but
I can still print in a collated fashion and want to use that
feature.

I haven't built the template yet (I feel confident that
that won't be a problem) but what to do after I get it
displayed?

The PAGESETUPDLG struct used with PageSetupDlg() has a
lpfnPageSetupHook so that I can recieve notifications
but I can't find anything on what messages to expect
except for WM_INITDIALOG and help.

Then what do I do when it closes or do I need to keep track of
the fields as they change?
