Hi,

I am use commondialog1.showprinter to allows the user to select the printer they want to output the crystal report.

It seem that after the commondialog setting the default printer is change to the new selection by the user.

Is there anyway that I can restore the original default printer setting.

Thank you

I ran into that too. Really stinks that MS did not handle that better. Any way, I found a couple of ways to circumvent the problem, unfortunately they were very complex and for some reason did not work for all printer types. To get to the point, I found it easier to write my own printer dialog and manage it myself.
