How to set the printer orientation page programmatically ?

[sisan]

I'm writing an app and it needs to print both landscape and portrait orientation print report.

But I have a problem, how to set it by program ?
I've tried to do it with :

Printer.Orientation = 1 'to set it portrait and
Printer.Orientation = 2 'to set it landscape

before the datareport shown, but it does'nt work.

Anybody could help me?
Thank you

Well from my expiriant you need to write
datareport.Orientation = 1 or 2.
if you get an error that this property is not recognise then you have
to downlaod sp4 from microsoft (its fix some VB bugs )
