Ugly PrintPreviewDialog

Hi all,

I am finding that the page display in a PrintPreviewDialog contains some
ugly graphics
garbage. There appears to be a 1 pixel line along the bottom and right side
which does
not get refreshed as the page is drawn. If I drag another window over the
top of the
printpreview this line gets filled with garbage where the top window has
been.

This happens even with an empty printdocument. ie:
Dim doc As New System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument
Dim pp As New PrintPreviewDialog
pp.Document = doc
pp.ShowDialog

I have tried on multiple machines in case it was a graphics driver issue.
Tried on
2 XPpro machines with different gfx cards, and on a 2003server via terminal
services.

Does anyone know of a way to correct this ??

thanks
Steve
