I would like to generate a fairly complex page in a VB5 program.&nbsp;&nbsp;Ideally, I would populate controls in an MS Publisher page and print it out.&nbsp;&nbsp;Is there any way to do this?&nbsp;&nbsp;Are there routines I could call from VB to set up a page for printing?<br><br>Any help/leads/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.<br><br>-- Ham
 
I also am looking for report writer type abilities, although different ones from Ham's.<br><br>I'd love to find functionality similar to that in Peachtree Accounting for Windows.&nbsp;&nbsp;They provide the user with a list of data elements to pick from and arrange horizontally.&nbsp;&nbsp;Headers are provided as are breaks and totals.&nbsp;&nbsp;No foreign key relationships are provided and I'd like to have them also.<br><br>We use Crystal Reports (now V7.0, soon V8.0) and I'm not sure what the limits of it might be but I don't think I can get there with it.<br> <p>John Kisner<br><a href=mailto:jlkisner@jlkisner.com>jlkisner@jlkisner.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
