Hello,
I have created a Crystal Report (v8.5) that will be accessed by end users through Microsoft Access (2000). The end users need the means to: 1) preview, 2) print, and 3) save to a file. I've included the ActiveX control for Crystal (Crystl32.ocx) and included the code for them to do the functions mentioned above.

The problem is that I want them to be able to choose a printer when they print instead of the report always going to their default printer. I found the method for
Code:
 .PrinterSelect
in the Crystal developr.hlp file, but if they press "Cancel" in the choose printer dialog box, the report still prints to their default printer.

Does anyone know how I can capture the "Cancel" event in this instance? I thought some sort of if/then statement like the following might work:
Code:
With CrystalReport1
     If .PrinterSelect <> &quot;Cancel&quot; Then
          .PrintReport
     End If
End With
but everything I've tried so far is to no avail.
Please help... Thanks!
Lynn
