Hello,

I do following.

aktReport.DeviceType := dtScreen;
aktReport.Print;

Then the PrintPreview pop up.
Then I click on the Printer Symbol and the PrintDialog pop up.

Now I choose a Printer, but doesn't which printer I choose, the report is
always printed on my default printer!


If I do the same with an ArchiveReader:

myArchiveReader.ArchiveFileName := tempArchiveFileName;
myArchiveReader.DeviceType := dtScreen;
myArchiveReader.Print;

There's no problem! The correct printer is used.

Can anybody help me?

regards,
Markus

    Hi Markus,

    IIRC, there was a problem with an older version of ReportBuilder when printing from the preview like you did. Update to RB 7.01 if possible. I don't know if there is a patch for older versions available. You may contact support@digital-metaphors.com directly, but don't forget to provide the version you are currently using.

    Markus,

    are you using version 6.00, 6.01, 6.02 or 6.03?
    You can download the trial version of 7.01 to check if you are using a version having this problem I mentioned. Version 7.01 should print fine in your situation.
