The report shows up ok in the previwer but.. nothing happens when I press the printer button. obvioulsy I need to add code.

You don't have to code anything to print the report from the preview window, unless you're talking about clicking a printer button that you've created to send the report straight to the printer. If that's the case then make sure you change the Destination property of your crystal report control to be equal to crptToPrinter.
 
I did not create any new button.
I am trying to print using the printer icon on ther previewer.

When I click on the printer icon, a little box shows up the default printer and number of copies.. when I press ok button, then nothing happens.

Somes posts on this forum advise the usage of report.printout method... I used that but still nothing happens.


Am I missing anything thing here

Thanks
