printing

[samantha72]

I set up the common dialog printer to show
cmdlg.show printer

If the user clicks cancel then i want it to be cancelled. I even tried using this
cmdlg.show printer
cmdlg.cancelerror = true

however if i click ok or cancel it still prints. I need to know how to get the cancel button to work.
Thanks
Samantha

First add in your project "Microsoft Common Dialog Control"
(Comdlg32.ocx file) with menu Project / Components.

Then add one CommonDialog into your Form : CommonDialog1,

Private Sub Command1_Click()
' This enabled Printer setup dialog box
' to change the default printer
Printer.TrackDefault = True

CommonDialog1.CancelError = True
On Error Resume Next
CommonDialog1.ShowPrinter
If Err = cdlCancel Then Exit Sub ' For Cancel

' Then use properties of CommonDialog1 like :
' CommonDialog1.Copies
' CommonDialog1.FontName
' CommonDialog1.Orientation ...
End Sub
