Printing the entire contents of a datagridview

[mcmahon]

Hi,
I need to be able to print the contents of a datagrid view. I have the printdialog, printdocument and printpreview dialog controls put on my form.. Here is my code so far:

Private Sub PrintToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PrintToolStripMenuItem.Click
        If Me.PrintDialog1.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
            Me.PrintDocument1.Print()
        End If
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub PrintDocument1_PrintPage(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument1.PrintPage
        Dim x As Integer = e.MarginBounds.Left
        Dim y As Single = e.MarginBounds.Top
        Dim lineheight As Single = Me.DataGridView1.Font.GetHeight(e.Graphics)
        For Each item As String In Me.DataGridView1.Controls
            e.Graphics.DrawString(item, Me.DataGridView1.Font, Brushes.Black, x, y)
            y += lineheight
        Next
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub PrintPreviewToolStripMenuItem1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PrintPreviewToolStripMenuItem1.Click
        PrintPreviewDialog1.ShowDialog()
    End Sub

I know the code under printdocument_printpage isn't right. But how do I get everything in the datagridview selected to send it to print? I don't want the user to have to go highlighting the datagridview.

Your help would be really appreciated.

Thanks
