Very Computer

I use VB 4.0 16 bit, Crystal Reports 3.0.1.32.
I have a print routine set up that prints a crystal report to the
printer. On the machine that I develop I can print out fine, however
on the machine that I install the software on nothing happens.
I use the code :

    If PEOpenEngine() Then
        PrintJobHandle = PEOpenPrintJob("order.rpt")
        If PrintJobHandle Then
            If PEOutputToPrinter(PrintJobHandle, 1) Then
                If PESetSelectionFormula(PrintJobHandle,
"{Orders.OrderNo} = " & PrevOrderNo) Then
                    If PEStartPrintJob(PrintJobHandle, 1) Then
                        PEClosePrintJob PrintJobHandle
                        PECloseEngine
                    Else
                        'can't start print job

The problem is with PEStartPrintJob which returns false. It returns true
on the developing machine and prints off the report. Both machines are
networked and linked to the same printer. Is there anybody
who can help me here. Am I missing some dll's. Thanks in advance,

Dave.

In connection with my first posting I am trying to set the printer
explicitly to the default printer using PEOutputToDefaultPrinter
which is superseded by PEOutputToPrinter. Details on how to declare
PEOutputToPrinter are given but not PEOutputToDefaultPrinter. Does
anyone know the details for declaring PEOutputToDefaultPrinter. If
you do then please let me know as it may help me solve my problem.
Cheers,

Dave.

I have the feeling you are running into path problems..
