All,
When I try to print multiple copies of the multiple pages with collate printing(Using VB6.0), It prints only one copy. How do I fix it?.
Thanks
Latha

I am having this problem as well. So far I haven't managed to solve it, but here's what I've tried:

In stepping through the code, I noticed that if you have the 'Collate' option box ticked, when the dialog closes, it sets the Copies property back to 1. However, if the 'Collate' box is unticked, the Copies property returns whatever the user typed in.

I tried setting the cdlPDUseDevModeCopies flag, and this disabled the Collate dialog box altogether. I am assuming this means that the printer driver does not support collating of multiple copies.

This being the case, is there any way I can get at the number of copies so that I can use it in a loop to print out the document multiple times?
