Hi,
I'm trying to implement Knowledge Base Article - 322090 into my code to be
able to send data directly to a pos printer. This works fine under win XP,
but when I try the same printer under W98 it fails to print. The openprinter
function fails, but when I try to get the error with getlasterror it just
states that the last command completed succesfully.
The printer is correctly connected, if I print from notepad or so, it works,
and if i send data to lpt1 from dos it also prints.
Anyone have any clue on what might be going on?
Thanks,
Kristof 3 1980

Use this method to get the error number:

I've got the error number now, it's 120 and the associated message is that
"this function is only valid in Win32 mode" (translated from dutch)
Any clues to what might be happening here ?

In my MSDN library version, error 120 is:
"This function is not supported on this system."

I was wondering how do you print just part of a webform in asp.net -- like
just printing the contents of a textbox or label. I know that it will
involve javascript, but I cannot get the javascript function to work.
Basically, this is the scenario ---
A simple web page with a search form. User enters search value, and a
datagrid displays what the search returns with a template column to link to
the details of each record found. ...

I need to send printer specific escape codes a printer for a POS register. Can anyone tell me how to send these codes to a printer using VB .NET and the Win32 spooler functions? I have looked at the MS article 322090 on how to do this but the supplied code doesn't work for the second button. Please let me know if there are any other resources on Windows printing. It would be greatly apreciated. Thanks for any and all help.

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.
