module Fortran_WinPrint question

[ahasan]

I am using the following steps to initiate the Print Dlg box with landscape paper orientation:

1) call PrintDlg() with flag PD_RETURNDEFAULT set

2) modify DevMode structure for landscape paper orientation

3) call PrintDlg() with PD_RETURNDEFAULT flag removed and allow user to select printer

In Steve Lionel's module Fortran_WinPrint example, DocumentProperties() and ResetDC() are called after modifying the Devmode structure. I don't believe calling DocumentProperties() and ResetDC()is necessary after my step 2 above sinceI amjust setting up the Print Dlg box for landscape paper orientation and not initializing the printer.

Can I skip the DocumentProperties() and ResetDC() codewhen just setting up the Print Dlg box? Just wanted to check to make sure I was not missing something.

Thanks for a reply.

Here is a utility routine for printer setup, in which the user can specify the page orientation, which is then returned to the caller.

Paul, thanks for the reply and the well organized example code.
