Printing A Form Using Info From List Box?
Mar 19, 2012
I've searched and searched for an answer to my question, but as of yet, have yet to find a solution to what I'm looking for. My background - 6 months out of College (Computer Studies)
Right now I'm working on a program that is going to be used to handle database information (Access 2007). On the main form the user can select 3 pieces of required info from drop down list boxes. Those are required. Then after that they are able to enter a first name and a second name. They then add that name to a list box below. They can add as many names as they want to a list box. Then from there they have the option to either just save the info, or if required (which will more then likely be the main option) print each person in the list their own certificate. I have designed a separate form laid out the way required for the certificate.
The trouble that I'm having at this time is that I am unable to make the printing process show all of the certs that are going to print in a print preview. I have been able to get it to only show one. The form is set to load where hidden = true.

I am trying to do is fill out a form with certain info, put the info into an array, and write it to a listbox using loops, arrays, and maybe a function if I need one. This is for VB2010 and here is what I have so far... I think there are ways to make it shorter but I cannot figure it out.... maybe just brain dead from all the coffee I have been drinking!

I am wondering, what is the most efficient way to print from a listview. The listview's values are loaded from a database, and I would like to print from that listview. So far I have tried moving them to a text file and printing the text file, but Windows said that "The file is to large for notpad" even though I was not using notepad.
Is it advised to create an array of structures and then load everything into the array? If so, do I create the array dynamicly?

lstListView is just a standard lstbox. Have no idea why this is happening or how to fix it. I can post the rest of the code if needed.

I have a requirement to print a number of records from a database. Each record refers to a second database that holds x number of related records. Just like and invoice header and line items.
I first print the report heading on the first page Something like "Invoice list for May 2012"
I then print the Invoice record headings under the the report heading Something like "Inv# Cust # Cust Phone Address 1 Address2 etc"
I then print that data from the original recordset Something like 1234 DR127 555 555-1212 Somewhereville 245th street
I then print the Line item headings Something like "Ln# Item# Description Qty Cost Selling Extn"
NOW Here is my problem: I never know how many line items there will be so can not predetermine when I will need a new page. I do have a way of telling when I am at the bottom of a page by using the text height and incrementing a value for each line
BUT I cannot figure out how to break out of the line item loop, start a bew page then carry on where I left off.
Once all the line items have been printed I need to start the next invoice by printing the Invoice record headings again followed by the header data followed by the line item headers followed by the line items for that invoice.
I have said that the page break may come while in the line item loop but it actually cold come anywhere in the overall loop.

I have a program in which I display a list of files in a ListView control and then send them all to a printer. I verified that the file is getting from the list to the print routine;however, I cannot seem to get the print function working right. I have tried several methods after reading many forum posts and articles to no avail. I listed my print routine below for reference; I send the file to the ReadFile sub that programatically creates the Print Document and then calls the Print page event. All in all rather simple, but I keep gettting about a dozen lines of blocks and arbitrary characters and then my document starts printing. I thought that by defining the SizeF structure in the MeasureString method and the RectangleF in the DrawString method I would clear up the problems
Private Sub ReadFile(ByVal _pfile As String)
Try
'Dim fs As FileStream

For a class project I am supposed to search through the attached file, and write to a new file the years between 1789 and 2009 that are not present in the fifth field. What is my best bet for determining what years are not present?
[Code]...
Should I make an array of integer between 1789 and 2009, then search for every year in the file, then set a flag to false if not found; is there a simpler way to accomplish this using LINQ?

I have a table being imported into my VB application that has 3 columns. I have written code to import the table, and have written code to display on the first column (country) in a list view.
What I want to do now is have the user select / highlight an item in the list view, and have the third column (currency) related to that selected country appear in a text box when a button is clicked.
Here's the code I've written that successfully imports the data and displays the first column:
Private Sub frmCountry_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim dataCountry As New DataTable()
[Code]...
Should I perhaps use something other than a list view?

So I have a program that is supposed to support a small business. I have the work completed and the professor said it was correct but I wanted to go do a little extra.Basically, on the Order screen, you begin to type the name of a customer/supplier/employee into a text box and a list of names that fit the criteria pops up in a list box (lbMatchingAccounts). When you select it, you can hit enter new order and be transported to the Order Details screen to enter the new order.
What I wanted to do was to create a new list box (lbOrderId). What I want is to be able to select a person from lbMatchingAccounts and have all their Orders populate in lbOrderId.

Okay I'm making a song organizer and I have a program that will load the files in a folder into a box and display the songs info into a list view. That part works fine but when you click the button to make it do anything it will get the variables that it need from the tags on the cells for each song but for some reason the one for the Album just disappears... I tried having it just show the value in a message box and it works fine. Just when I try to combine it with another variable then it wont show at all. Heres my code

I'm trying to make a simple game, but i have a question.i have a minimum damage and maximum damage lbl boxes on 1 form and i have a button if clicked it opens a 2nd form with buttons that deal "damage" when clicked
1. Attack (a regular attack that would deal the damage from form 1)
2. another attack ( this deals damage from form1 + 8)
3. another attack ( deals 30% damage for 4 attacks [so 4 attacks that deals 30% damage each])
4. another attack ( this one is great. it deals damage of 2 times of minimum damage to maximum damage and a third label box lblAP (attack power) which each 2 points of attack power you have it adds 1 more damage.)
i can do that math i just have no clue how to bring the info from form 1 to form 2.

I want to create a form that a user will enter information into. Once the user hits "Submit", the program will search through my db. I want the result to populate into a completely new form. I only need the info from one column in order to generate the entire record, but how do I carry the info retrieved from the search what the user selects into the new form in order to populate the new form.

I have a database, and I am creating many forms that pull info from the db and write info to the db. I have a form that asks for a set of information. One of the box is a combobox that has a list of values. I have a button at the bottom
of the form that will allow the user to enter a new value to the values that populate the combobox if the user does not see the value they need. This will obviously populate a new form to create the new value.
I want the information on the first form to not be lost when the user hits the button to enter a new value for the combobox, yet I also want the combobox to display the new value.
Is there a way to save the information from the form and repopulate the form with the info the user entered? If I reload the form undoubtedly the form will repopulate the combobox and my new value will be there, since I have it reading and pulling info from the db on loading the form.

I develop a project in VB 2010 Express and my project includes two related DataGridViews . One of the DGV has a unique ID for every row. The DGV shows that ID as a Barcode. To see how to format a DGV column to show a Barcode follow the link below:
Format DataGridView to show Barcode - Code39
how to print the form, so the barcodes can be read by a barcode scanner?
I tried to print the form with Visual Basic PowerPacks - PrintForm (See link below). Everything was smooth until I saw the printed paper. Printing quality is very low, and the barcode can't be read with the barcode scanner.
Print a Form using PrintForm component
I tried diffrent ways to print that form with no succes. What do you suggest I should try?
(As i said, I have 2 datagridviews and 4 buttons (one for filtering called "TestOrder", one for Printing called "btnPrint", one for print preview called "btnPrintPreview", and one for page setup called "btnPageSetup").

I developed an application for a local company that required printing a chart and some data. I made the program on a Windows 7 machine using the PrintForm control. It printed just fine and I sent it to the company, but they are running it on WindowsXP and the program is crashing. I assumed that PrintForm would work on all Win operating systems but apparently that is not the case?
If there is something special that needs to be done to get PrintForm to work on XP that would be fine (downloading a lib file or something), but otherwise what is the best way to print out a VB.NET form on Windows XP?

printing a displayed form to a printer. This is my current code. (I am using the PrintForm visual basic PowerPack.)
Private Sub btnPrint_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnPrint.Click
cPrintForm.PrintAction = Printing.PrintAction.PrintToPreview
cPrintForm.Print()
End Sub
This prints the form fine, but the problem is that the page printed is portrait, and my whole form doesn't fit on it, so I was wondering how to set it to landscape?
