There has been some discussion here recently on this very point.

First off, I think it will depend a bit on what version of VB you're using. In VB6, you can simply use the form's PrintForm method. Don't know what the equivalent is in later versions.

Unfortunately, this is simply a "screen dump" - an image of exactly what is displayed in the window on-screen. Since the screen resolution is generally much lower than that of the printer, you end up with fairly blocky and jagged-looking printing. It's certainly worth a try, though.

To print things in decent quality you really need to draw them to the printer individually. I don't know whether we've come up with a good answer to that yet. You might try some Google searches, as it is a very old topic of discussion in VB circles.

I would like to send the Print Preview of a MS Access form to a Snapshot file. The form contains an OLE graph. BACKGROUND A snapshot of a report is possible. If I could I would use a report to display the graph but it is not possible to send query parameters to an OLE graph on a report (or programatically change any properties of an OLE Graph). However with a Form you do have the ability to change the RowSource of

I have a form that consists of 150 records and is still growing. there are times when I want to print a certain record of the form, say record 12.

I need to be able to print the current form because the form has an embedded object of a .gif file, so report will not work -- does anyone know the way to do this? I tried some code, not sure what it was now, guess docmd.printout or something but that prints ALL the forms -- also the each page of the form does not always start at the next page even if allowcontinuousforms is set to no. The preview button previews all the forms as well,...

Hello friends, I want to print an ID card. I have one Windows Form that contains front and back side. The printer is printing both front and back side at a time.

Hi all, We have a "testing report" form at work that we fill with data (typing for now). The form has a table, other lines and a company logo. I can make a windows form that will get the data from the user (although eventually it will need to be read from a serial port) and generate a print preview of the form but I don't know how to display just the printed form (and data) and not the rest of the entry fields or the "print" and "exit"...

the View Orders form in my Access database has a Print button on it. It has other buttons too, like Edit etc. These buttons used to be at the bottom of the form laid out horizontally, but this was causing the form to be just long enough vertically that some people when viewing it on their screen would have to scroll up or down to see the top or bottom of the form. So, my solution was to make the form wider and move the command button over to...
