default directory with PEExportPrintWindow

[epsi]

Hello Colleagues,

when I export with the 'suitcase'-symbol from a report-window, after choosing disk-file, he offers me to save the *.xls-file in the directory where the reports were installed.
How can I change the default-directory by the application?
I have an Visual-Basic 6.0 Application and use the API function PEExportPrintWindow from crpe32.dll, which is of the Crystal-Report-Version 6.
Does anybody have an idea?
Thank You for very much.

Regards

Stefan Eberhardt

Such an old version of Crystal, the version that comes with VB 6 is 4.X (gutted version of Crystal but more akin to version 8), whereas the latest Crystal is up to version XI now. Are you certain that you're using CR 6?

Version 7 and below are no longer supported by BO.

Here's all I can find on it (I used to code using the Print Engine) I think that you want something like the PEGetExportOptions:
