Hi,

We have a few clients who need to print reports which contain more then 1000 pages.

We recently introduced the print page range selection and now the printing stops at page 1000. (Before the page range was introduced they had no problem.)

We do not want to limit this or introduces batch printing.

Has anyone had this and found a solution?

In eager anticipation.

Hi Carl,

I have looked through all of my notes, because I do remember a time when the VSPRINT.OCX was limited to reports with less than 1000 pages. You are using the OIPI 4.01, so you should have version 7 of the VSPRINT.OCX. I found this line in the online help for VSPRINT version 6:

"Note: In VSVIEW 3.0, you could only create preview documents up to 1,000 pages long. In VSVIEW 6.0, the only limits are those imposed by your hardware."

So it seems that VSPRINT 7 should not have any limitation either. However, there may be a bug with the PrintDoc() method in the VSPRINT 7 when you use the page ranges option in the OIPI. You might try downloading the latest VSPRINT7 from www.componentone.com – I think it is version: 7.0.0.93 - June 24.

If this does not fix the problem, them maybe Revelation or I could create a simple VB test application to determine if the problem is with the OIPI or with VSPRINT.OCX. If it is a bug with the latest VSPRINT, then maybe ComponentOne will fix it… or maybe it is fixed in version 8, which they just released.

We have NORMALLY found this to be a swap file size limitation as it builds the report in memory first so runs out of virtual memory. Upping this normally seemed to fix this!

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

This problem only started after I initiated the page range faciltity in OIPI.

Up until that point the customers were able to preview and print well over 1500 pages.

Hi

Thanks for the reply.

As I have replied to Sprezzatura this only happened after I initiated page rnage facility.

Also we are using 16bit version which does not contain VSPRINT#.OCX

(at least I have searched my computer and cannot find any VSPRINT files).

We do have the VSview2 and 3 files.

Any ideas
