Hi Badara,
I started doing some testing with your Printer functions. It works fine execpt for WinDefPrn(). Works well with 98, 98SE and ME but not for 2000.
Did`nt check XP yet...
When I looked at Windows 2000 register HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG,
System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers has no value in `Default`
So it`s returning nothing. Thus not detecting the default printer.
I will check for XP tonight to see if there is any differences.
I also have another question. Is it possible, from the Windows register, to somehow detect what type of printer it correspond to.
ex.: Laser, InkJet, Dot Matrix or Thermal.
I closely examined the register and could not figure out if this information was present. But I tought it was hidden somewhere esle.
Regards,
Gilbert
