    Unhappy common dialog printer problem

    I'm having trouble with the common dialog api. I'm using Access VBA if that makes a difference...

    After choosing a printer in the common dialog box, the report always prints to my default printer. Why is this? How do I make the report print to the printer I choose?

    If you are using DataREport, then - it always prints to the system default printer. You have to change the default printer, no use a Set Printer = statement.

    See this sample code for chanfging the default printer (not just what VB thinks is the default)
