 Printing landscape in DataReports

Does anyone know how to print to landscape using
datareports, without the user manually changing the
orientation?
I have tried setting the printer object before invoking the
datareports .show or .printreport methods but this doesn't
work.
Help!

 Printing landscape in DataReports
Search for pageset.dll at http://support.microsoft.com/

This dll will allow you to programatically change the orientation of the
printer.  It is however, very cumbersome, especially for a network
environment.  Data Reports is a dysfunctional tool that does not seem to
work well at all.  I have yet to find a good alternative without
purchasing the newer versions of Crystal Reports, other than what comes
with the VB CD.

Good luck to you!

Microsoft supplies a downloadable solution for setting page orientation in
the DataReport tool.  Check out Article Q198901:
