  Hi, i have here a winform that uses the Telerik.ReportViewer.WinForms.ReportViewer() control to print some letters.
  
  I need a solution to log the print action in a database, i have add a print event, but its not captured :(
  
  here the code:
  

  private void testPrint()
  {
   Telerik.ReportViewer.WinForms.ReportViewer viewer = new Telerik.ReportViewer.WinForms.ReportViewer();
   viewer.Print += new System.ComponentModel.CancelEventHandler(this.viewer_Print);
   Report_Password report = new Report_Password();
   viewer.ShowExportButton = false;
   viewer.ShowHistoryButtons = false;
   viewer.ShowPageNavigationControls = false;
   viewer.ShowPageSetupButton = false;
   viewer.ShowParametersButton = false;
   viewer.ShowStopButton = false;
   viewer.ShowZoom = false;
   viewer.ShowRefreshButton = false;
   viewer.ZoomMode = Telerik.ReportViewer.WinForms.ZoomMode.FullPage;
   viewer.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
   viewer.Report = report;
  }

   void viewer_Print(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
  {
   // Not caputred here :(
  // Log to DB
  }
  
  how can i capture this?
  
  Thank you

  Hello,
  
  I've just tried this in a new project with a blank report, and the print button event can be captured without a problem in the latest release.
  
  The code I used was as follows:

  private void RadForm1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

  {

      this.reportViewer1.Print += new CancelEventHandler(reportViewer1_Print);

  }

   

  void reportViewer1_Print(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)

  {

      MessageBox.Show("Printing");

  }

  
  Please can you try this and let me know if it works. If this is ok, please remember to mark as answer. If you need further help, then just let me know
  Thanks
  Richard
