Programmatically set print option to Landscape - crystal viewer...

Hi All,

I have been looking at ways to set the print layout to landscape programmatically (windows forms, crystal viewer). Does anyone know if this is possible? Would I need to create my own print button instead of the report viewers?

I found this, but not sure how to implement it for my scenario:

Private WithEvents myDocumentToPrint As PrintDocument

Dim aPS As New PageSetupDialog
aPS.Document = myDocumentToPrint
'
' On the 1-rst call to the print dialog initialize the document's
' properties. On subsequent calls use what was previously set.
'
If Not myPageSetUp Then
With aPS.Document.DefaultPageSettings
.Margins.Top = 50
.Margins.Left = 50
.Margins.Right = 50
.Margins.Bottom = 50
.Landscape = True
End With
End If

I got this code from: http://www.thescarms.com/dotNet/PrintDataSet.asp

I appreciate any help on this.

regards,

KS

Thanks, that did the trick! Just need to find out what the parameters mean, as it only prints the first page!
