My page margins top and bottom are not what is entered in Page Setup dialogue box. The left, right margins are ok, but the top, bottom margins are all over the place.
Thanks in advance for your help. I am using the page setup tool from the visual studio toolbox.

This one works ok.
MypageSetupDialog.PageSettings.Margins = new Margins(40, 40, 40, 40);

But when I change to this
MypageSetupDialog.PageSettings.Margins = new Margins(100, 100, 100, 100);
The bottom margin is more than 1 inch.

VB

//In the DrawRows method here is the code that checks for end of page

// Checking if the CurrentY is exceeds the page boundries
// If so then exit the function and returning true meaning another
// PagePrint action is required
if ((int)CurrentY > (PageHeight - TopMargin - BottomMargin))
{
CurrentRow++;
return true;
}

//should be
if ((int)CurrentY > (PageHeight - BottomMargin))
// otherwise the bottom margin is doubled (if the same as top margin)
