How to use the custom check as the default

If you have created a custom check form in Peachtree Complete Accounting for Windows 2002 or higher, then when you are printing a check, a dialog box pops up and asks you if you want to use the check form previously used or if you want to select from all the check forms.  

Select previously used if your custom form was used the last time you printed checks.  Select that you want to select from all the check forms if the custom form was not used before.  Then, select your custom form.  Then next time you print checks, your custom form is the first option on the dialog box ("use the check form previously used").

If you are using an earlier version of Peachtree, you can save your check form with a "1" in front of the name, ie., 1ABC Companys AP Check.  This will list the ABC Company's check first to select from.
