The default that controls it in DBA Classic is in SD-Q.

I am happy.  I think this is resolved.  
 
It was not my defaults in SD-Q that got messed up.  It was "Save Settting" at the bottom of the screen.    
 
Here is what I did.  I answered NO to all 3 document printing questions, and then the "save settings" button appears.   So I saved the settings, but I couldnt remember the password so i had to go to SD-Q --system manangers tab and see what my password was.    since my folks dont have access to SD-Q, I think my setting my automatically Xfer to them. or maybe they just default through a blank password, I am not sure?
 
 
I still wonder what caused my all my defaults to get changed?   Was it archiving all those sales orders? or was it that I copied an exact replica company for everyone to use and the exact replica didnt keep the save the settings?
