Though little lengthy but, there's one solution for this. I have founds this solution after fighting with VB6 data report for last 3 months. Though Vb6 data report doesn't allow to print reports in landscape mode (Error= report width is greater that paper width) it has one facility to export report. Exporting reports in .txt or unicode format distorts the shape of report. But exporting report in .html format gives report as we all need it to be. The only thing is that you have to format the report accordingly as will be seen in Internet explorer. Having IE 5.5 will be better option as it has some advantages over it preceding versions. IE 5.5 gives you to print preview the report ( actually the html page) as we see it in data report. It also allows to print report in landscape mode.
Requirements => Internet explorer 5.5 and Windows Milleniun Edition (Windows ME) on which I have experimented.
Friends hope this small experiment may help you. For any suggestions please mail me at sachinbobde@hotmail.com
