group:print active x question
sql server reporting services:
WE have locked down our security so that no active x controls can run for our
end users. Is there a way to integrate the installing of the print active x control into the startup script? Or does it have to be installed using direct from the report manager? We have looked at the cab file but cant find the installation path for this control once it is run. Help would be greatly appreciated.
I guess it depends on how you locked down IE. If they can not run activeX
controls period then there is not much you can do, if they just can't download them then you can manually install them as I describe below. The client print control is just a COM object. You could extract the contents and run regsvr32 on the rsclientprint.dll. There are a couple of issues you need to be aware of though: 1) make sure all the additional files are located in the same folder as the rsclientprint.dll 2) If we ever update the control you will need to make sure to update the control in your script or the control may not work correctly. -- -Daniel This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Ok, it works, but how do you install so that when you go into Internet
Explorer and view objects you actually see the RSClientPrint Class and can remove it? Seems there must be way. Tx. [quoted text, click to view] "Daniel Reib (MSFT)" wrote:

To have IE show it in its list of objects it needs to be installed by IE.
You could probably copy the files to the Downloaded Program Files directory and register them there, but I am not positive that would make them show up. -- -Daniel This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

We have a similar issue, where users are locked down and unable to download ActiveX controls. I have searched in vain trying to find a work around installation. I have tried to copy the files in the .cab to the "C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files" and register the dll using regsvr32. However, I am still recieving an error (8007F304), when trying to print. I have been unable to find any description of the error on the web. When I debug, I see the error is caused by a call to the print method of the rsclientprint object... -- Vermont - AOT Sys Dev/DBA
I found the problem, I was using the wrong version. Thanks to all those that
could have helped... -- Vermont - AOT Sys Dev/DBA [quoted text, click to view] "Rob_C" wrote:
