PrinterSetupEx dialog in CRXI R2

68 Views

I recently moved a VB6 project from Crystal Reports 9 to 11.5. In version 9, the dialog presented by PrinterSetupEx allowed the user to select a printer and its paper size, source and orientation (and as the user changed printers, the valid paper sizes and sources would be updated in the dialog).

In 11.5 the dialog presented by PrinterSetupEx allows the user to specify the paper size, source and orientation -- but not the printer. It seems the only place the user gets to specify a printer is in the print process itself, if the Printout/PrintOutEx is called with the promptuser option. Am I missing something? Wouldn't the printer have to be selected before the user could be presented with valid paper source and handling options?

Is there a way I can get to the old dialog? Thanks.
