The above method is a bit broken in itself - but it would give the general idea.
This issue is probably fixed in QuickReports 4 - although I have not bothered to upgrade - just as I get everything working ;-)

Sorry gang. My reports did print after all. For some reason it was asking for the alternate paper tray and the requests just got spooled up waiting.
At this point, my only problem is why the spooled requests required something other than the default paper tray. I examined this default printer on my Windows machine and it is set to go with the default paper tray.
I need to find out if the spooled print job is requiring the wrong paper try due to something in my software, or some vagary of Windows itself.

I realize I am probably just missing something simple here.
I can create a form with a TQuickReport and an associated query. I call the Preview method to display my report. The report runs fine, and my data appears on the page as expected. But, when I click on the print button at the top of the page, nothing happens.
I have a default windows printer set up, and my larger applications with many quick reports (I inherited the whole system a couple of months ago) works great. All the existing reports print out just fine.
What I am trying to do is create stand alone application that I can use the preview screen to open a QRP generated elsewhere and print it out without having to bring one of the reports up on my large scale system.
Does anyone have any idea as to what I might be missing here. Like I said, the reports open from the QRP file just fine, but clicking the print button seems to do nothing. I have even looked for an OnPrint event for TQuickReport, but there only seems to be a OnBeforePrint and OnAfterPrint, neither of which provide any illumination on my situation.
Thanks in advance,
Eric
