[Former Member]

I want to configure PrintControl to print in Web Project. I have done as following but it not work:

Error: An error occurred creating the configuration section handler for businessObjects/crystalReports/printControl: The given assembly name or codebase was invalid. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131047) (D:\Projects\MyProject.Web\web.config line 23)

Please help me to choose PrintControl.Cab (Version and PublicKeyToken) and

the way to config PrintControl.

Thanks in advanced.

Dear Ludek,

First, I thank you for your support.

But I have done as your blog, but print control dialog still not display.

It is only display dialog with "Print and a dot (no image) and a image of close button.

Now I want to use print button on CrystalReportViewer for printing the report by a print dialog,

meaning:

1. Click on print button on CrystalReportViewer (Web Application)

2. Display a print dialog

3. I can see print dialog for configuring before printing.

Please help me to solve this problem.

Thanks in advanced,

Thuan Phan.

You'll need to use a utility such as [Charles|http://www.charlesproxy.com/download.php] or [Fiddler|http://www.fiddlertool.com/fiddler/] and determine what http requests are being used and denied.
