Datawindow print dialog

Question:
How can I get the Windows 95 print dialog box todisplay instead of the print setup dialog usingprintsetup()?

Answer:
You have to build your own custom dialog window. The PFC comes with a standard print dialog window, so you could use that as a basis for your window, or attempt to unravel the PFC window out of the PFC and into your application.

It would probably be quicker to build your own while looking at how the PFC window was built.

If you are using the PFC, then you can, of course, just use the window directly. The window is named pfc_w_print and it is located in the PFCAPSRV.pbl
