Sets or returns the report's printable width in inches.

Syntax

'Declaration
 
Public Property PrintWidth As System.Single

public System.float PrintWidth {get; set;}

Property Value

The amount of physical space to which a report can print. The default value is 6.5 inches.

Remarks

If the margin widths are not taken into consideration when setting the print width, the report may become wider than the paper size. When this happens, a blank page will be printed out after each page in the report, or in the viewer, a vertical red dotted line will appear on the right-hand side of the page.

Example

private void viewer1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    SectionReport1 rpt = new SectionReport1();
    rpt.PrintWidth = rpt.PageSettings.PaperWidth - rpt.PageSettings.Margins.Left - rpt.PageSettings.Margins.Right;
    rpt.Run();
    this.viewer1.Document = rpt.Document;
}

Visual Basic

Private Sub Viewer1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Viewer1.Load
    Dim rpt As New SectionReport1
    rpt.PrintWidth = rpt.PageSettings.PaperWidth - rpt.PageSettings.Margins.Left - rpt.PageSettings.Margins.Right
    rpt.Run()
    Me.Viewer1.Document = rpt.Document
End Sub
