Question:
Is it possible to have predefined (dynamically changeable) global variables that can hold reference to the printer name, copies, paper format, etc. and use a PrintReport()
action that will print a report to that printer?
My goal is to have a process for printing bills and other reports quickly, without having users answer questions like “which printer,” “number of copies,” “paper format” etc.
Answer:
There are properties you can change in the Crystal Reports OCX controlthat set the number of copies and the printer name. Iwould start by trying to set these properties programmatically.
