You stupid, gormless fuck. It has nothing to do with XP and everything to do
with the Windows API. Try this...

CPrintDialog dlg(FALSE);

  if (dlg.GetDefaults())
  {
  /* Create a printer device context (DC) based on the information
  selected from the Print dialog. Using silent opening */

    HDC hDC = dlg.CreatePrinterDC();
    ASSERT(hDC);
    CDC pDC;
    pDC.Attach(hDC);
    /* put your code here */
  }

And you can fucking well look after the C# to Ada translation yourself.
London to a brick says you know fuck all about the Windows API.
