>>>>>>>Hi,
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>I am working on a program that consists of a grid. That is it, the program is just one grid. In this grid the user will see all work orders assigned to him/her. One of the columns of the grid will allow the user to print any of the work orders in the grid.
>>>>>>>But sometimes, a user does not want to print but simply a view the order; in a report preview format. And the key is that I don't want to have two button - that is to take two columns - one for print, one for preview. In my initial test, I do the preview by using the doPDF driver installed on my PC. So, by choosing this driver, I can view without printing. But I do not want to "force" the customer to install a doPDF or some other driver that allows to convert a print to a PDF.
>>>>>>>Instead I want all the functionality be in the program.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>I can add a small menu, when user clicks on this button that will ask if user want to Print or Preview.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>So, my question, how else would you suggest having both Print and/or Preview in one button of the grid?
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>TIA

>>>>>>I strongly recommend the free FoxyPreviewer. You only need to make a few changes in your program, and you will have it exactly like you want it.

>>>>>Support I have add FoxyPreviewer. How - from the UI-stand point - will the program accomplish both Print and Preview from the same button?
>>>>
>>>>Your program will have only one button, View Report. FoxyPreviewer will have the "second button", Print Report. Plus other options, like email report, export to Excel and so on. All these options can be removed or changed by you.

>>>No go. My reports are very tightly based on XFRX. And I don't want to change it.

>>OK, you should have told us that earlier. Doesn't XFRX have similar options?

>What option are you talking about? You didn't tell me how the FP would handle the Print or Preview from one button.
I meant an option to Print from the Preview window. That's most common, and what most users prefer.
