DATAREPORT-Paper Size And Orientation. URGENT Help Needed
Hello,
I`m working on my first datareport.
So far, the report is already designed and I can preview it (in letter size), but I need to print it in 3 copies, 1/3 legal size, and landscape orientation.
This must be done automatically, I mean, I donīt want the user to be setting "number of copies" = 3 or anything at the printer panel. (if possible I donīt even want the printer panel to appear).
The result should be a 1 legal size page with the report printed 3 times in it (NOT 3 legal size pages with 1 report in it).
How do I achieve this?
Any help is very well appreciated.

Is There Really A Way To Print Into A Legal Size Paper With DataReport?
I have been with this problem a big long ago. I tried the printer.papersize = vbPRPSlegal and nothing, it still prints into a letter size paper (8 1/2 X 11). I don't have the enough budget to buy Crystal Reports and don't know if it can print into different types of paper sizes.
Is there any way to print into a legal size paper with DataReport?
If not, is there a way to tell the printer that I would like it to forward 1 to 2 inches so that I can start printing from the 2nd inch of the legal size paper and print the 11 inches long permitted of a letter size paper to be able to print into the legal size paper till the 13 inch ?
Any help will be appreciated.

Paper Orientation
Hello all,
I have 2 reports. One report's width is greater than 8.5 inches so i made the orientation as Landscape. I understand that this setting is not enought if we make it in the vb program at run-time. The default printer should be made as landscape in its properties.
My other report is a normal A4 paper size report which has to be displayed in Portrait. When i change the orientation using the printer object at runtime, its not working. It still remains Landscape.
Can someone guide me. Its very urgent
Thanx in advance

*** RESOLVED *** I Need Help Setting Up Paper Orientation With Data Reports
This is a redirection of my earlier post about data reports.
I am trying to print out a report that needs to be in the landscape orientation to contain all of the data being produced in each line. When ever I try to widen my report past a certain point it gives me an error that the report is wider than the paper. This is true for the portrait orientation but not for the landscape orientation.
My question is: How do I change the setup of data reports, or whatever in my program, to use the landscape orientation?
I can get my data on the report and I can even change to landscape in the dialog box that is given when you go to print the report. It won't spread the report out any wider than the approx. 7 inches of width that it uses for portrait printing.
The amount of data I need to print will not fit on one line using the portrait orientation so this is very necessary for me to resolve this.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Later,

I Cannot Get Or Set DataReport.Orientation Property
I have done a search for this topic on this forum. For this question, the answer is "install Service Pack 5". Yes, I already installed SP5 before. Although my DataReport has no Orientation property.
See http://www.xtremevbtalk.com/showthread.php?t=21405
My problem is exactly same with the problem discussed at this link. I want to design a report that too wide, because I have too much fields to report. For this reason, I want to make my report design landscape. Also I tried
Code:
Printer.Orientation = vbPRORLandscape
before showing my DataReport. But I get this error message:
Quote:
Report width is larger than the paper width
Yes, my report is larger, but not larger than landscape! I want to make my report landscape!
Now, I am downloading SP4 and will try it. Can this solve my problem?
Please tell me, Why does not my DataReport have Orientation property?
Thanks for all.

Need Help To Change DataReport Orientation From Portrait To Landscape At Run Time
The following is the source code to change the default printer's orientation:
------------------------------------------------------
If Printer.Orientation = 1 Then
Screen.MousePointer = vbHourglass
Printer.Orientation = 2
AllOpenRec.Show
End If
------------------------------------------------------
Since I need to print the report in Landscape, so, if the user default printer is set as "Portrait", the programm has to change it to "Lanscape" before the data report show.
However, when I run that, an error always comes up:" Report width is larger than paper width". What should I do?
I checked some information. It looks like this is a bug in DataReport itself. Is it true? if not, is there a way to fix that?
I really really trully deeply appreciate if some one can help me fix that.

Datareport Paper Resizing
Hello everyone,
I'd like to know how to print datareports in papers with the size similar to those of concert tickets or something. Does anyone know how to do it? Because when i preview a datarepot it always show the report on a A4 size paper....
DataReport Paper Alignment
I am trying to get a DataReport to print records onto tractor-fed slips of paper. The slips of paper are 3 1/2 inches in height and perforated together.
I built the report to have a height of 5040. The first three slips of paper print beautifully, but every three records, the spacing between the top of the slip and the beginning of the printing increase by half an inch.
I assume the system thinks it's printing on 11-inch paper, but three of these slips only make 10 1/2 inches. If it's possible, what is best way to get a VB DataReport to print on 10 1/2" paper?
P.S. I have the option of switching this report to Crystal Reports if it would better suit this type of printout.

DataReport Printing On Continuous Paper
hey, guys.
i'm still learning the ins and outs of data reports, and here's my problem:
after displaying data in a listview, i'll be using data report for printing. however, i don't know how to set the program up so that it prints ok on continuous paper (the kind dot matrix printers feed on, with the holes in the sides). from the datareport preview, it looks to me like it's normally set up for printing on 8.5" x 11" paper.
is there a way to set it up so that the program automatically prints data on continuous paper, without fiddling with the printer? could anyone show me some sample code for that?
i tried searching this site for tips on that, but so far i've come up blank. any help would be appreciated.
thanks a lot.

Let me try to explain what I want exactly
One of my program is successfully populating the records into many excel worksheets with the given format.
Some of those details are going to many coloums (horizontaly from 'A' coloum to 'O' coloumn). When I am trying print those excel worksheet is A4 size paper, it is coming into more than one paper ('A' to 'K' in one sheet and remaining into another sheet)
How can i automaticaly fit into the A4 size paper width by coding wise?
I know that manually we can go and adjust the size by a draging the lines in print view page. Can I do that through excel automating coding? Is it possible to do? Now everytime user has to go and manually set the lines to fit into the page width
Pls shed some lights on this
