Dear Friends,
I am working in Oracle/D2k (Developer Version 3.0.5.8.0) . I want to restrict users from taking multiple copies while printing reports from D2k. For that I want to disable just "No. of copies" Option from Print dialog box. How can I Do that? I will call report from D2k Forms( Form version 5.0.6) . Which parameters are useful to achieve solution of above problem? Pls. help me to solve this Problem.

i Know i am replying too late but even then i am posting so that some one else can have idea by my reply.
In my suggestion, you have to proceed as follow
Step-1) create a table named "printing_counter" having fields
Reportname, primarkey_column.
Step-2) when printing button is pressed in form. Check in "printing_counter" whther the row exsist with reportname and primarkey_column for which the printing is being called.
If exsist then give message, already printed and go to step-4
by by-passing step-3 which is basically call to you report
Step-3) call report with dest = 'printer' and copy='1'. In report isert a after report trigger which will insert report name and primarykey_column value in your "printing_counter" so that in future, this report can be printed with same primary key value
Step-4) END
-Dude
Note: I have given u FLOWidea. Please check the HELP for complete refernce and syntax.
