Rod
I want to produce some reports designed for printing. (like you can in
Access). I can't find the equivalent, what's the accepted way of achieving
something similar.

many thanks

Rod,

That is the greath difference between Access and dotNet programs.

Access is (in fact) an end user solution. VS net a programmers tool.

There are reportgenerators from which Crystal Report is free delivered by
VS.Net.

However when I see often placed messages here, not very much liked by many
devellopers.

I hope this gives some idea's

Rod... As Cor says you can use a report writer and even embed a crystal
report in a VB.NET form. If you are looking for the ability to print
selected parts of the user data form directly to the printer, bypassing
the report writer, then you can do this with a winforms printing
framework and databound printable components such as label, textfield
and nondata printable components such as lines, page breaks etc.

Jeff
