Printing a Report
Author: Mike Palmatier
Posted: May 3, 2006
Environment: Visual Basic 6.0

'Printing using the default printer dialog wndReportControl.PrintReport 0 You can also use the CommonDialog control to print. With a CommonDialog control, the CommonDialog.hDC property returns a device context for the printer selected in the Print dialog box when the cdlReturnDC flag is set. See the sample below for more on how to do this.
'Printing using the CommonDialog Control On Error Resume Next
With dlgCommonDialog .DialogTitle = "Print" .CancelError = True .Flags = cdlPDReturnDC + cdlPDNoPageNums .ShowPrinter If Err <> MSComDlg.cdlCancel Then wndReportControl.PrintReport .hDC End If End With |
