Found some code for printing documents, as I've never tried it before. My main focus is to print the content of a listbox to a sheet of paper. What I found uses a type of ListItem, which doesn't seem to be available for a Windows Form outside of web dev.
My attempt was to add all items to an array and then cycle throught the array to create a new line after every array entry. I think that portion is functioning as desired, but I'm not quite sure if I'm handling the print function correctly.
VB.NET
Private Sub LnkPrint_LinkClicked(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs) Handles LnkPrint.LinkClicked
If PrintDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
Me.ThePrintDocument.Print()
[Code]...
I don't get any errors and the printer spits out a page, but it's blank.
does any one have a clear annotated sample code for printing a document from with in vb with out calling word processor, for example
i have a form(Clients) and three textboxes(txt1)(txt2)(txt3)
i want to print the three txtboxes from vb and i want to be able to tell it where on the page it should print and may be show me preview of the page before printing?
i have never used printdocument function or printdialog function
I've created some windows in wpf that I need to print to one xps document. Each window opens, loads the relevant data and then immediately closes. Currently I use the below code to create the xps:
Using doc = New XpsDocument(TempLoc, FileAccess.Write) Dim writer = XpsDocument.CreateXpsDocumentWriter(doc) Dim collator = writer.CreateVisualsCollator() Dim Window1 As Window1 = New Window1() Window1.ShowDialog() [Code] .....
However the trouble with this approach is that the area printed varies between machines - I assume this is due to the local screen size being used etc. Is it possible to make the program print the full window independent of the computer its on by modifying this code?

I have this particular problem with this Property found in System.Printing namespace. I am trying to get the number of pages of a document but it always returns 0. I have posted this problem here some some days back back it seems there is no answer for this problem but rather people direct me to use PrintQueueWatch which is an open source namespace to monitor print document.
Try 'This side always records the print command transactions defaultPrintQueue2 = LocalPrintServer.GetDefaultPrintQueue Dim jobs As PrintJobInfoCollection = defaultPrintQueue2.GetPrintJobInfoCollection For Each job As PrintSystemJobInfo In jobs [Code] .....
At the moment I get the JobName, the submitter, the printername but this particular one number of pages returns 0 why?

I am using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition under Window XP.I am able to generate a document that I can preview and print on my printer using PrintDocument1_PrintPage and PageSetupDialog1.ShowDialog() without problems.I would like to be able to save the document as a file that could eventually be printed with a Word Processing program such as MS Word or other Word Processor.I have added a PrintDialog to my form and have set the folowing:
When I run it, I get a Dialog Box with a "Print to File" checkbox that is checked. I do not seem to be able to specify a file name or location. When I click the "Print" button, I don't get any error messages and the dialog box just closes. I can't find anywhere that the file is saved.

We are opening a Word document from our Visual Basic 2010 application using the Word object. When we run our application under Windows Server 2008 the document name is truncated in the main window title for the document. This is not the case when we run our application under Windows XP. Is there a way to prevent this truncation under Windows Server 2008?Mary Leathem
I generate random number and it is of four columns in the listbox. I want to print it out. With the following VB.Net code, it prints only the first column, not the other three columns. Can any one help me, so that I may have all these columns printed out.

I have a listbox which collects data regarding the planets. I would like to give the user the ability to print out this listbox with a push of a button.Heres a sample of the listbox coding info:
im tring to get vb to print all the items in a textbox to a text file Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click For Each liststring As String In ListBox1.text liststring = liststring & vbCrLf My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText("C:\sample.txt", liststring, False, System.Text.Encoding.ASCII) Next End Sub

I have been trying to print multiple pages from a listbox. This is the code I have been trying to get to work. It prints the entire contents of listbox6, which is good but it only prints on one page and the text overlaps once it starts to print from the top of the page again.
Code: Private Sub PrintDocument3_PrintPage(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument3.PrintPage Dim lpp As Integer Dim lno As Integer
[code]....
All I need to do is print the entire contents of listbox6 whether it has 1 page of data or 19 pages of data.
Ive built a very small application for personal use only. Ive been working on it for around 2-3 weeks & have just finally completed it this morning.
Basically what I want to do is add a button to my form which will allow me to take the contents of the listbox and print it out or atleast be able to save it to a word document or something of that kind, I'm not entirely sure how I would go about doing this. Bare in mind, Ive only just stepped into VB around a month ago.. self learning myself via internet & several books I have at hand.
We have a rather large VB.NET accounting application that crashes occasionally for some customers. I have now been able to reproduce this particular almost 100% in my test nvironment using certain data. The crash happens when clicking a list box after printing a report. The form involved has a list box listing available reports. You select one or more reports from the list box and click the print button. After printing, if you click the list box again, the program crashes, with an exception that does not seem like one VB.NET should even be able to produce.The exception message is: "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt."The call stack is:
my problem goes like this:i am making a system of a certain bakery...i already saved some products in the database and i also imported it in the combo box...my problem is this....from my combo box...i want to print it in the list box with its price
I need stop printing and paper feeding in the middle of printing in dot matrix printer.(Like a POS Printer - When wrote 'End Doc' on POS printer can stop paper feeding)
I am using VB 2008 & Access Databases for creating WinForm Applications. Also i am using Crystal Reports for Report solution. my question is How do i created reports such a way that they can be printed in faster Ascii Format on any DotMatrix printer. The default true type fonts make printing very slower.
I tried to use "Draft 10 cpi" font which come to available me after i installed a correct driver for my Epson printer. which also helped me overcome this problem. however it wont be the scenario with all my clients i.e. they might have different printers having different Make with different drivers installed. i have tried to open such project on there PC but the printing wont come in Draft instead the fonts get expanded too much & the print wont come right.
I basically have an application that generates reports in a .html file, I use a .html file for the ease of making tables and formatting text.Now I would like to introduce a way of printing the reports from my program. Because I use a .html file, the formatting would not the correct if I was to print it directly from my application (as far as I know). For this reason, I would like to print it just like my web browser would have in order to keep the tabular data intact and the text formatting.
I'm creating an application which has an scheduler to print and it checks if there is a pending job on the print queue before it prints the next file. I use a timer which checks if there is any file to be printed on my database. Example, the timer ticks and selected 10 files to be printed, it should print the 10 files 1 at a time, if there's no print queue, that's the only time the next file should print. I think another timer is required which will keeps on checking if print queue is done. How will i do this?
problem that i am facing is i want to add array of object as a single item in listbox. in vb6 i was using this Label1.Caption = Label1.Caption & Mid$ (strInput, intI, 1) & " " List1.AddItem (Label1.Caption) i was using label. caption to store object but not work in vs2008 because label.text only take text and left other values
