  I want to change from the old Report to the Flexreport (4.8). Now my program uses the following VB-code:

  ppv = New PrintPreviewDialog

  pd = New PrintDialog

  Create a Report and Subreport in 2 Subroutines
  
  Call RenderFarbMaster()
  
  Call RenderFarbDetails()

  ppv.Document = ReportFarbMaster.Document
  
  pd.Document = ReportFarbMaster.Document
  
  If pd.ShowDialog = DialogResult.OK Then
  
  ppv.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized
  
  ppv.ShowDialog()
  
  End If

  If I change to Flexreport, which commands must be used.

  Hi Klaus,

  For C1Report, the C1PrintPreviewControl and dialogs were used to view and interact with the reports. However, for C1FlexReport, we have a new C1FlexViewer control for viewing and interacting with the reports. The FlexViewer provides the page layout, print, export, and other useful features for the FlexReport.

  Please see the attached sample project showing a simple implementation of the same - ReportViewerSample.zip

  You can also refer to the documentation of FlexReport and FlexViewer for more details.

  This example https://gccontent.blob.core.windows.net/discourse-forum-uploads/file-5ae2c2eb-84b2-48e0-9e58-6065958a485f.zip does not work. I neede a simple example for VB.NET. Is this possible.
