Is it possible to print both landscape and portrait on the same page? If so, how? I have tried

Printer.Orientation = vbPRORPortrait
Printer.Print "This is Portrait"
Printer.Orientation = vbPRORLandscape
Printer.Print "This is Landscape"
Printer.EndDoc

VB6 does not like changing orientation within a page. I would think this would be easy - but it has me stumped

Thanks in Advance

I believe this is a printer dependent issue. In a praical sense, I do not know of any pronters which support it. If the process needs are minimal, I think you can print rotated text to some printers. It is NOT exactly the same, but careful planning for small items could be done.

There is never time to do it right but there is always time to do it over
 
You should have gotten an error message
Run-time error 396:

'Orientation' property cannot be changed withing a page "It's got to be the going,
not the getting there that's good!"
