Print dialog events not firing

ABTom

Hi
We're trying to run some code on

OnPrintDialogCreate
and
OnPrintDialogClose

To determine whether cancel was clicked on the print dialog.

But neither of these events is firing. We are using the latest RB v21. Is there a setting that we've enabled by accident that would prevent these events from firing?

Many thanks

Hi Tom,

After a quick test (with Delphi and RAP code) the PrintDialog events appear to be firing correctly.

If you are loading templates, be aware that you will need to assign the events after the template is loaded or the reference can be overwritten.

Another solution is to keep the event code local to the report definition using RAP.

Thanks Nick, it was loading the template causing my issue. Assigning the events after the load worked. The PrintDialogModalResult seems to be returning mrNone instead of mrCancel but using <> mrOk worked for me.
Thanks for your help
