Common Dialog does not set Printer object?

[khaki]

When I use the commondialog.showprinter and I change the settings in there, but when I close it, the printer object properties does not refelect what I have changed in the commonDialog. eg. if I set the printer to Landscape in CommaondDialog and When I check Printer.Orientation, it is not the same.

How do I make the printer object reflect what was changed in the CommonDialog control?

Try

Printer.Orientation = CommonDialog1.Orientation

I am using VB 5 and CommonDialog doesn't have orientation.

Is there a way to get the properties via APIs possibly?

I want to retrieve all the properties from what was changed in commondialog not just orientation. eg papersize, printer.width, printer.height and so on?
