Thanks for you follow-up. I am kind of at a road block (mentally) of where to go/what to do. I may be having problems because I am transitioning from VB6 to .Net 2005. To clarify, I need to build a list of the three items mentioned above and pass it to a print class that will loop through the...

Sorry Sorwin, I am not knowledgeable enough about .Net go further. Can you give me a few more hints?

I have a class that prints invoices. I need to send the print class something (I think a list) that contains three items, which are InvoiceNumber as String, LotCharge as Boolean, CandianCurrency as Boolean. So, to clarify, this would be a list of about 500 of the three items above. I am not...

Hi, Yesterday I learned how to print using the PrintDocument control in a form. Today I am tying to make it fit my application, which I am changing over from VB6 to VB2005. In VB6 I have a Class Module that accepts an invoice number as an argument and it prints it. Can anyone point me in the...

Thanks DarkConsultant, I was able to print, now I have another question. I am printing invoices from many different forms. Can I put the printing of the invoice in a module? I in VB6 I would pass it the invoice number and it would be printed. Also, if I am printing in a form, do I have to...

Hey Dark, I went over your example and it looks similar to what I am doing with a header, but I print my header on each page (it looks like you just print it on the first page.) What I still don't understand, which I am sure I am just looking over it, is how the loop is ran and how it works...

Hi, I am really struggling over HasdMorePages in the PrintDocument control. What I need to do is print invoices for our customers. In VB6 I would set the printer and loop through the records. I manually determined if I needed a page break because I knew how many line items could fit on a page...

Thanks Woogoo, I was finally able to read the record (after 3 days of working on it), but I have a 'Warning' about the Implicit conversion from 'System.Array' to '1-dimensional array of Byte'.... I will have to see what this means and go from there.

Hi, I am trying to read a file that has fixed length records and is indexed. The array has 200 elements. My FileGet reads like this: FileGet(FileNumber, FileData(0), RecordNumber) I am only getting one character in place "0" and I don't even know if that is correct. Does anyone have any...

Hi, I am just now starting to program with VB.Net after using VB6 still for the past several years. One of the programs (Class) I am converting over gets the UserName from the registry. I have found the System.Environment.UserName but I am getting a security warning when I am testing it on...

Gerry, I just wasn't trying to correct key movement, but after I went down I see the first example that you gave me. I think that I tried everything else including many key combinations with Enter, Shift, Ctl... Anyway, thanks for the tip, it works for me. -Uncle Cake

Hi, I am trying to write my first application in VB6 that will create a Word file that has lots of text and a few tables. The overall goal is to create a quote in Word populated with data from our database. My first goal is to write text followed by a table and then followed by more text using...

Hi, I am pretty new to vb.net, but I have used VB6 for the last few years. I am trying to print to a wireless (WHFI) Zebra QL 220 printer from a Symbol wireless scanner (MC9060). I don't know if that is relevant, but I think that I can do most of it, but I can't figure out how to print to the...

I figured it out. Thanks for your help! -Uncle Cake

Thanks TipGiver, that got me off to a start, but I can't figure out how to call the PrintDocument1_PrintPage. -Uncle Cake
