I don't remember where I got this code but I'm copying it almost as is.

Put your processing code in a User Defined Function (or method) that you can call from within the report. In the "On Exit" section of the Report Summary Band, call your User Defined Function (or method). Your User Defined Function should look like this:

IF WEXIST('Printing...')
... Put your code here
ENDIF

The 'Printing...' window will only exist if the user has printed to the printer, not when the user is previewing. Putting the code in the "On Exit" section of the Report Summary band helps ensure that the user has finished printing and didn't cancel it.
