WinAPI

Hi,

I am using C++ and plain Winapi calls to display Print dialog box and it works fine. However the dialog box I get shows old printer icons compared to similar Print dialogs produced by other software. I wonder why.

Does anyone have an idea how to display the new printer icons as does MS Paint dialog or similar software.

Thanks a lot.

Note: I tried to put screen shots of the dialog boxes but could not find how. Without the screen shots the question might be difficult to describe/understand. sorry...

What I have tried:

Here is how I display the Print Dialog in my application:

// Initialize the PRINTDLGEX structure
PRINTDLGEX  PrnDlgEx ;

PrnDlgEx.lStructSize = sizeof (PRINTDLGEX) ;
PrnDlgEx.hwndOwner = hwnd ;
PrnDlgEx.hDevMode  = NULL ;
PrnDlgEx.hDevNames = NULL ;
PrnDlgEx.hDC = NULL ;
PrnDlgEx.Flags = PD_HIDEPRINTTOFILE | PD_NOCURRENTPAGE | PD_NOPAGENUMS |
                 PD_NOSELECTION | PD_USEDEVMODECOPIESANDCOLLATE ;
PrnDlgEx.Flags2 = 0 ;
PrnDlgEx.ExclusionFlags = 0 ;
PrnDlgEx.nPageRanges = 0 ;
PrnDlgEx.nMaxPageRanges = 0 ;
PrnDlgEx.lpPageRanges = nullptr ;
PrnDlgEx.nMinPage = 1 ;
PrnDlgEx.nMaxPage = 0xFFFF ;
PrnDlgEx.nCopies  = 1 ;
PrnDlgEx.hInstance = NULL ;
PrnDlgEx.lpPrintTemplateName = NULL ;
PrnDlgEx.lpCallback = NULL ;
PrnDlgEx.nPropertyPages = 0 ;
PrnDlgEx.lphPropertyPages = NULL ;
PrnDlgEx.nStartPage = START_PAGE_GENERAL ;
PrnDlgEx.dwResultAction = 0 ;

HRESULT Result = PrintDlgEx (&PrnDlgEx) ;
