Hi

I was hoping that someone could help me with Visual Basic in terms of
printing.

My program does not contain any pages however I would like the user to be
able to print out the grid that appears when the application is run.
Therefore I am going to need a print dialog and a print preview display.

I have only been programming for 1 week and so I am fairly new to the whole
thing

Thanks in advance

Andrew

printing in VB involves a PrintDocument object and some knowledge of a
Graphics object. when you print, you are really "painting" what you want on
the graphics object, which then is in someway passed to the printer. Id read
up on Graphics and try using them before trying to print.....just to save you
paper and ink on messups
