Printer Dialog using Crystal DOTNET

I would like to bring up the printer dialog before my report is sent to the
printer to allow the user to select another destination and possibly the
number of copies.

Can anyone steer me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Tommy,

The easiest thing to do is to use the reportviewer component and simply pass
the filepath for the report file into it - when the viewer comes up, the
user need only click the printer icon to set # of copies, etc:
CrystalReportVi ewer1.ReportSou rce = "f:\apps\re1.rp t"

HTH,

Bernie Yaeger

Hello, I'm trying to print the content of a RichTextBox from my VB 6 app. What I want is that the CommonDialog shows up, the user selects a printer and the content of the RichTextBox prints to the selected printer. I'm not concerned about the text format. What I tried is something like this CommonDialog1.ShowPrinter

In my application I need to give the user the ability to print duplex if the selected printer supports duplex printing. Many of the printer options do not make much sense in my application, and many of the settings in the common printer dialog would have a negative impact on my printing process. To handle this strict printing constraint on which my application imposes I do not want to show the common print dialog. I want to be able to...

Hello, I need to implement a custom print dialog, and I'm trying to show a printers configuration box, like when you click Properties on the windows forms PrintDialog. I've gotten as far as showing the dialog. Now what do I do with the devmode pointer? I've tried using SetHdevmode on the printer setting, and it's default page setting, but I'm getting a System.EngineExecution error. Here's the declarations,

We currently are trying our first transformation from VB6 to VB.Net. Of course, the Printer object is gone, but I'm having trouble finding the replacement syntax necessary to perform similar actions or set variables. We are interested in doing this inline (no pop-up dialog box). Specifically, where how would I replace the following properties/methods of the old Printer objects.

My C# app. apparently has problems with PageSettings not being initialized properly after calling PageSetupDialog. If a user selects a non-default printer from PageSetupDialog, the PageSize is apparently not-initialized properly. It appears to be printing to a very small page size and only prints a small piece of each page. Alternatively, if if a user selects the new printer, then user selects the paper size from the printer properties,...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
