    VS2005 is .NET 2.0, not 1.1. Anything in 1.1 code can usually be done in .NET 2.0 unless otherwise stated in the articles/documentation

    take a look at this:

    http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/datagridex.asp

    its .NET 1.1 but should be the same for .NET 2.0, just changing the name of the components and its properties.

    Thanks for the link, unfortunately ive been there... I received this from a discussion on here...but it doesnt quite work...and another unfortunate fact is that im not a very skilled programmer. =( Im learning though. =)

    ' Dim line As String

    ' For Each row As DataGridViewRow In CustomersDataGridView.Rows

    'line = String.Empty

    'For Each cell As DataGridViewCell In row.Cells

    ' line += cell.Value.ToString() & vbNewLine

    ' Next

    ' Dim font As New Font("Times New Roman", 12)

    ' Dim brush As Brush = Brushes.Black

    ' Dim x As Single = 20

    ' Dim x2 As Single = 100

    ' Dim y2 As Single = 100

    ' Dim y As Single = 20

    ' e.Graphics.DrawString(line, font, brush, x2, y2)

    ' Next

    I've looked at some sample code from microsoft in the msdn library, buut its for framework 1.1 and im using VS2005...not to mention they describe how to print from a stream, i dont want to open a file and print the file, i just want to print directly from my application. Liike, printing a listbox or a richtextbox for example...Although in this case it would be a DataGridView or something that is able to hold DB Information.

    are you asking on how to print records from your VB.NET application, which have records showing from retrieving the values from an MS Access database

  • Jegant

    Yes'm

  • dafle

    OOps, heh, yeah...good question, someone might need to know that before helping someone like me...heh...heh...anyway, its in access

  • dickP

    Ill settle with anything really...maybe a way to generate a text file from the database, then print the text file...

    Or perhaps, put all of the information into a rich text box, or some other type of object...I would just really like to be able to print...

    thanks in advance
