    'hprinter.Configure don't use that !
    hprinter.Orientation = Printer.Landscape
    hprinter.Resolution = Desktop.Resolution
    hprinter.Paper = Printer.A4
    hprinter.OutputFile = "/home/frank/test999.pdf"
    hReport1.Print(hprinter)


But for all of that ou can use directly

hReport1.Preview...

And please use a new thread next time
