Label printing in c#

Jlo
Hi Gurus,
I have a win forms appl in c#.

I need to print out labels. What is the best way to do it.
I dont want to write the labels to an RTF document and format it by using
complicated Drawing functions.

at the link does Avery mean anything?

I dont want to use Crystal reports because when I package it, the msm (merge
modules) make the whole bundle very very heavy for the client to download.

This is very urgent.

Thanks Gurus.

Well, the first question is whether the client has Office installed on
their machine. If you can rely on that then you might want to look
into using VSTO (Visual Studio Tools for Office). You can either code-
behind in C# or there's probably a way to spit out XML format Word
files (if you're using Word 2003 or later).

Otherwise, as much as I dislike Crystal, it really is pretty easy to
call from a C# application, and you have to install it only once on a
client machine.

Have you looked into other packages, such as Active Reports? Crystal
isn't the only game in town....
