Hi All,
I've got a report that prints mailing labels. It utilizes a routine that
asks the number of labels to skip, the number of each label to print, and
then prints. It works really well on a print preview. But,when I print to
the printer it disregards the number of labels to skip.
I preview all the reports I've got and then have a little printer icon to
click on if the user wants to actually print (my attempt at saving trees).
Every other report I've got shows the preview, and then prints successfully
to a printer in a format identical to the preview. So, why would my label
program not print that way? If I choose to skip 5 labels, on the preview it
does...but the printer starts at the top left corner of the page, almost
every time. Sometimes, depending on how many I ask it to skip it'll show up
fine on the preview, but then it'll skip 2 on the printer...but it's never
what I asked for.
So, I guess my question would be why would it work on the preview, and not
on the actual printing? Without posting all the code, modules, etc...can
anyone think of a reason for this?
TIA

My guess is that you have to tell it how many to skip when you click the
little printer icon.

It's difficult to reply because you haven't shared with us the code or
method used to input the number of label positions to skip. We're not
mind readers, especially on Mondays... :-)
I would suspect that somewhere between opening the Report in preview,
and printing it, you have code that is closing the form that asks for
the input of how many records to skip.

I'm glad you agree. Your post was totally useless and just another one of
your misguided attempts to post your sigline. If you had passed grade 2
English, you would have noticed it was NOT the same as FredG's post.
There was nothing wrong with FredG's post. He indicated that more
information was required, you just parroted what the OP said.

My program right now generates USPS style shipping label using

I print mailing labels by using a report I created and then printing them on

I C# code prints very slow as compared to a third party barcode printing
software. That software prints approximately 10 labels in 2 seconds while my
C# code prints 10 labels in 5 to 6 seconds. And this differences increases
with the increase number of labels.
The code is as follwods:

Font is Times New Roman, 12pt

Hi,
I know Access allows for easy construction of a report setup to print labels
from a table/query, etc. I've done that one. It works pretty well for what
I need.
However, is there an example anywhere that someone can point me to that is
more flexible?
And, I mean flexible in this regard:

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
