|    Problem with Printer.Orientation    |
|    07 Oct 04 15:43:11    |
      From: bruceadams@spammenot.oywcortland.com              I am using VB6 SP6. I have an application that prints charts. Specifically,       it prints line charts of plant process information nightly. The code is a       mix of API calls and Printer methods. I am currently migrating to a new PC       running XP. The charting application is hanging on a single line of code:              Printer.Orientation = vbPRORLandscape              It throws an error '484', "Problem getting information from the printer.       Make sure printer is set up correctly."              I am setting other printer parameters without problems. I can GET       orientation no problem:              pOldOrientation = Printer.Orientation               If I comment out just the "Printer.Orientation = vbPRORLandscape" line, it       works fine, just in the wrong orientation. This application has worked fine       in Win98, Win98SE and Win2K. I have been Googling this for hours and can't       find a solution. Has anyone here experienced this? If yes, how did you solve       it?              TIA,       Bruce              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
