Hi james,

That's why I want the status dialog ONLY while printing to a printer.

When the user is editing the graphics I will refresh the
PrintPreviewControl frequently. During these refreshes I do not want
to display any status dialog because the user doesn't need to cancel
anything as it is just a preview. Also its annoying to get the status
dialog for every refresh.

I have checked it on different machines where different printers are
installed. The status dialog is still the same one. Now I am sure this
is not printer driver's status dialog.

regards,
shashi
