I have written a small VB program which lists my music files on my computer, but I can't get it to print exactly the way I want it to. The data is viewed on screen in an MSFlexGrid named "TextGrid" and the following code will send it to a printer, but I was hoping to be able to send it to either a text file or directly to a Word for Windows file. Private Sub Command34_Click() Dim X%

Hi Guys: I was stuck. I needed to send a report to a file. My beautiful report(s) in Access were going to require loss of formatting with RTFs, a PITA in WordMailMerge, sending it as a text file...whatever. I described my situation to the guy I'm doing work for and he did some research for me and came up with the following link. http://www.novapdf.com/ The part that should excite us Access developers is their SDK

Hello, I am developing a VB.NET 2003 application that will use lots of Crystal Reports. Sometimes the users will preview a report in a Crystal report viewer, and sometimes they will send the report directly to the printer bypassing the Crystal report viewer altogether. When sending the job directly to the printer I use the PrintToPrinter command CR.PrintToPrinter(1, False, 0, 0)

Hi, This apparently is a common problem and I've yet to read a solution that actually works for my specific situation. I have a Zebra RW220 printer that I connect to via Bluetooth connection mapped to a serial port. The application I'm writing runs on a Windows Mobile 5 device, so there's no built in printer support and I have to use a serial port. When I try to write the zpl code to the serial port, the printer simply prints the code...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
