View 4 RepliesI just completed moving my development platform from an XP machine to a Windows 7 machine. I have a very simple MyPrintDialog.ShowDialog statement that works on my XP machine, but on my Win 7 machine does nothing. The line is executed and no dialog appears and control simply passes to the next statement (no exception). I am running Win 7 professional and VS2008 targeting 2.0.
View 8 RepliesI am using .NET (VB) Graphics to print/preview reports in a pre-defined format (like tax forms), which works just fine. I would also like to be able to have the ability to accumulate one or more different reports and save them to a file for later conversion to PDF or to use the XPS print driver to print them.
When I check the "print to file" box (for a regular laser printer or the XPS print driver), and click "Print", I do not get an Open File dialog as this article suggests I should [URL]. The operation seems to proceed normally, but I have no idea where to find the file, if in fact one is created.
I am using Printdialog control in VB 10 but I am not able to choose de printer. Even choosing a specific printer in the Printdialog, it always prints in the default printer of the computer.

View 18 RepliesIt seems that if I use .ShowDialog for a printdialog from a toolstripbutton then the dialog does not have focus, I have to click on it twice to change any options.. If I call it from a regular button or menu, it works fine...
I found that this was a confirmed bug but there was no posted workaround..
In my code I have a PrintDialog that allows the user to select a page range to print (the AllowSomePages property is set to true), but when a range is selected (ex: pages 2-3) in the dialog it still print all the pages in the document. I've been following the API documentation as well as articles/tutorials online but I still can't get it to work. Multiple copies print fine. Print to File works fine. Just the page range doesn't work.
I've tried manually setting the ToPage and FromPage members in the PrintDocument's PrinterSettings and DefaultPrinterSettings members as well as in the PrintDialog's PrinterSettings member. I've also set the MinimumPages and MaximumPages in each one with no success.
Here's some test code I've been trying to solve the problem with (...well the latest version anyway). The code is on a WinForm with one button (Button2).
Public PageCount As Integer
WithEvents Doc As New PrintDocument
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click

View 1 RepliesIs there a way to iterate through the Windows.Forms.PrintDialog.PrinterSettings?
Something along the line of:
Dim pd as New Windows.Forms.PrintDialog.
If pd.ShowDialog = Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
For Each property as ??? in pd.PrinterSettings
'Do something
End If
The print job always prints to the windows default printer. Ticking print to file does nothing, changing the target printer does nothing, setting number of copies wanted does nothing. My code as follows:

View 2 RepliesI need to allow the user to rotate a control (the control inherits from a TextBox) in 90 degree increments so the text can be read from either side, or even upside down.
I'm guessing I could override the control's paint event and just paint it in the orientation that I want, but I'm just wondering if there's a quicker/built-in way?

View 4 RepliesI'm using a 64 Bit Windows 7 system and trying to use PrintDialog. I know it doesn't work on Windows 7 unless you add this code: PrintDialog1.UseEXDialog = True.

And the error: "An exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.SEHException' occurred in System. Windows.Forms.dll but was not handled in user code. Additional information: External component has thrown an exception."
