I have a button on my form to "Print". I would like to create an
HTML file, of the output, and call the Explorer...Prin t function when
this "Print" button is clicked. How can I do this - the
Explorer...Prin t part? I can create the HTML file, just need help with
calling the Explorer...Prin t function - supplying the path to the file
so that only the Print Dialog pops up once they click on "Print"
Thanks! 3 2620
Printing in windows forms is not normally performed like that. Printing is
normally done with a PrintDocument class which has an event which you handle
to do the printing which is done by GDI type drawing.
The easiest/cheapest/dirtiest way of doing what you want would be with a
Browser control. You could load the HTML into the browser control and call
the print function on that. That would then work just like internet explorer.

Thanks Leo - this was what I was looking for. Got it done and it
works perfectly. I HATE windows printing. I have been looking at
ASP.NET programming a bit lately and didn't see why I shouldn't just
have my app create an HTML file/report and use this method to print
the html file. I seems to me that this is a lot easier than dealing
with the whole GDI/drawing approach. I get tables, borders, fonts,
etc... without having to deal with the font size calculations, line
spacing/tracking, etc...
If there is any other way that you guys recommend, I'm all ears,
but until then - I like this method! :)
