Hey,

I'm using CRXI with VDF11.1 and I have the following problem:

If I make a report, and set the printer settings to landscape, from then the
report always print to the printer that was standard at that time. Even
after setting bach to portrait, the report is still printing to the printer
that was standard on the time of changing.

If I set my default printer in windows to another printer, i expect the
report is printing to that printer.
Is there a property in Crystal to say, use the default windows printer. In
earlier versions there was a checkbox for that I think.

Regards
Katrien Naert.

I remember seeing in one of the bug fixes that this was a bug and was
fixed...
There are 11 bug fixes related to printers in this, one of the latest bug
fixes.

David,
We have installed the SP1. Should that fix the problem ?

The file I attached was from a later fix. Check under the weekly hot fixes
and the Monthly ones.

commonXIwin_en
and
crXIwin_en

where the first 2 hot fixes. It appears to me that BO just called these SP1
and combined them into one download.

The later download is crXIwin_mhf. I am not spending a lot of time checking
what changed from one download to the next unless something breaks.
