hi,
there is a way to print the screen contents using MS Word. First open the form to be printed & press 'Print Screen'. Open a new document in word, press 'ctrl+v' or paste the contents. The entire contents of the screen will be pasted on the document as a picture. Right Click on the picture & click 'Show Picture Toolbar'. Using these tools you can 'Crop' the picture the way you want & do other kinds of picture formatting. Hope this works.

regards,
bye.

If you mean just being able to print a vb form then:

frmYourFormName.PrintForm

This should send a image of the form to your default printer.
 
hi,

I know about "printform". What about I want to
print specific controls on form. One way is to hide unneeded
controls using visible = false. Is there a direct way like a
method or statement in vb which gives the same result.

Anything like API ???
