When I click the print button in the Crystal Report Viewer (CR XI R2) it renders the report as a PDF file prior to printing. This adds an extra step for my users. Is there a way to print without going to a PDF file first?

Not that I know of. This is the way the viewer does it's printing. When you're in BusinessObjects Enterprise, there's a way to set it to use an ActiveX printing control, but I don't see a way to set that in the .NET Crystal Viewer component.

Dell,
Thanks for your response. I did find that property on the viewer control and set it to ActiveX. It is much better.
Thanks,
Steve

Just for my own edification, which property is it and which version of VS are you using?
Thanks!

I am using VS 2005 and CR XI Developer Edition - Release 2.
The CrystalReportViewer property is PrintMode.
Hope that helps.
Now I am trying to figure out how to set the default for the group tree to off.

There is also a PrintToPrinter command if you want to print directily without viewing first.
rpt.PrintToPrinter(1, False, 0, 0)
