What I've done to print (and preview) a test report is this:
- Create a new form and put two ole controls on it: ole1 to contain the
crystal reports application object, and oleViewer to contain the crystal
reports report viewer.
- Make ole1 hidden and size oleViewer large enough to see some of the
report.
- Declare a local variable oReport as CSTRING(20)
- Put an "OPEN" button on the form, and embed the following code in its
Accepted embed point:
!Open the report
?ole1{prop:create} = 'CrystalRuntime.Application'
oReport = ?ole1{'OpenReport("c:\my documents\test2.rpt")'}
!View it in the previewer
?oleViewer{prop:create} = 'CRViewer9.CRViewer.9.2'
?oleViewer{'EnableAnimationCtrl'} = 0
?oleViewer{'EnableExportButton'} = -1
?oleViewer{'ReportSource'} = oReport
?oleViewer{'ViewReport'}
This will show the report in the preview window.
- Put a "Print" button on the form, and put this code in its accepted embed
point:
IF oReport
IF PrinterDialog('Select a printer')
?ole1{oReport & '.SelectPrinter("' & |
PRINTER{PROPPRINT:Driver} & '","' & |
PRINTER{PROPPRINT:Device} & '","' & |
PRINTER{PROPPRINT:Port} & '")' |
}
?ole1{oReport & '.PaperOrientation'} = 0
?ole1{oReport & '.PrintOut(FALSE)'}
END!if
END!if
This will pop up a printer selection dialog and print the report to the
printer you select.
Hope this will get you on the way.
