VS 2008 Printing Invoice - Print Out The Whole Form
Apr 17, 2009
im having problem creating an invoice. on my form ive layed out text boxs,listboxs etc in the correct order. i do not want to print out the whole form, but just how the layout is and containing the information in the labels etc.
my program is working perfectly fine the only problem is i just cant print it!! i managed to print the subheadings, eg price,name,quantity etc . i want to be able to print the contents of the listboxs under the correct heading. does anyone know a way to go about this?

I generate a print preview, the only thing is, if there is enough data to fill like 2-3 pages I don't know how to generate a new page. It only fills the first page and that's it....
Private Doc As New PrintDocument()
Private Sub btnPrint_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnPrint.Click[code].....
most of the code it's just pulling data from database and printing necessary charges to the invoice, but if the invoice is more than 1 page then I don't know what to do because it only generates 1 page.

I'm trying to figure out the best and or easiest way to print to a pre-formatted invoice form so that my data lines up with the appropriate fields on the invoice. I've looked at PrintForm from the Power Packs, but it doesn't print a full 8 1/2 x 11 page that I can tell. I was thinking about storing the data to a text file and printing the text file, but I know there are going to be problems if I use hard spaces inbetween the text. Is there a way to use some kind of absolute positioning to line up my data? If so, how would I go about doing that?

Basically I currently have the following code which enables me to print the form perfectly.
CODE:
However, with the coding above on the print preview the form screen shoot/dump isn't centred. So I was wondering what would be the way to go about doing it? This is using the printform in the power packs available btw.
Also I figured it might be using height/width/location/margins etc, but I'm not to sure how one goes about assingning values to them. Like the two above I commented don't work.

3107.DGV Print in VB2008.zip For some time I have looked ways of using a datagridview to create an invoice and print it on paper. I know that I am not the only one who wants to do this. I have seen many requests for help over the years but no solutions. The creation of the invoice in VB was relatively easy but printing it to paper presented a huge challenge. What I am presenting here is a cut down version of an invoice program to illustrate the printing of a datagrisview rather than the whole invoice project.Printing a datagridview is hard work. There is no luxury of WYSIWYG.There have been a few items on the various VB help web sites on how to print a datagridview but I, as a novice programmer, had difficulty following the code. The last one that I found and could use is:
[URL]
I would suggest you download the project from this site and take a look at it as I removed much of the code that did not apply to what I wanted in my invoice. Please also note that this Code Project download prints the contents of a database and you cannot modify the DGV contents. I have made a slight modification to the print code to cater for blank or empty cells. If this is not done, the print stops at the first empty cell in the datagridview even if there is more data further down the grid - a very real situation in an invoice where lines could be left blank for clarity.
There are a few other points worth noting. FormMain is the form containing the invoice layout and is the project start form. This is done deliberately as the print sequence needs to use Form1. I have not yet found out why. Some of the buttons, tick boxes and radio buttons on the PrintOptions form do not work and are not required for this demonstration. The PrintDGV code is based on the original Code Project download. I needed a starting point and the code has been extensively modified to meet the invoice layout requirements. To save time during developing the print code, I hard coded the invoice number and customer name and address text boxes on FormMain. This information was inserted in the properties window under "Text" for the text boxes. I also hard coded the name and address of the business initiating the invoice in the PrintDGV code. I have yet to find a way of giving the end user the opportunity to create their own company name and address on another form and have it automatically inserted in the print code.
Besides just being able to print a datagridview, I have looked at what each part of the code does and I have made comments in the hope that it will make it easier for the reader to understand and learn. Although my invoice is designed to be only one page long, I have left the code at the end of the print sequence to show how multiple pages can be used.
To understand what I have done, I suggest you download the zipped file, unzip it to a folder of your choice and run it. You will see a datagridview with 16 rows of text and numbers representing goods sold. (These have been hard coded in the MainForm_Load sub routine. Removing or commenting out some of this data will leave blank cells in the DGV but the whole thing will still print.) Press the "Print" button to show the "Print Options" form. Leave all the controls in their default state and click "OK". This will take you to the "Print Preview" form where you can see what will be printed. If you want to actually use paper and ink, press the printer icon on the "Print Preview" page. The 3 check boxes in the checkedlistbox on the "Print Options" form allows you to remove columns from the printed form. I will be using this facility in the finished product as some of the new columns in the DGV will be for internal use and calculating the totals only. No totals have been shown at the bottom of the invoice to keep the demonstration as simple as possible.A future project will show how to print an invoice using a database for the items sold - a more practical application. There are some differences in the code in FormMain - mainly how to set the form to take 16 line items even if only 2 or 3 lines are used.

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.

Hi, i have a form with size 850,900. When i print this, on the print preview the right hand side of the page is cut off. Is there a way to stretch the form so that the whole form is printed? Currently the form contains 4 datagrids, i don't know if this makes a difference, becuase if i resized these i wouldn't be able to see all of the text.
Also, on the print preview page, is there a way of displaying the print dialog box when pressing the print button, so that the local network printers can be selected?

"Create a class called Invoice that a hardware store might use to represent an invoice for an item sold at the store. An Invoice should include four pieces of information as instance variables--a part number (type String), a part description (type String), a quantity of the item being purchased (type Integer) and a price per item (Type Integer). Your class should have a constructor that initialize for each of the four instance variables. Provide a property for each instance variable. If the quantity is not positive it should be set to zero. If the price per item is not positive it should be set to zero."
I attached the code I have. obj is underlined and says "Argument not specified for parameter 'Invoice4' of the 'Public Sub New (Invoice1 As Object, Invoice2 As Object, Invoice3 As Object, Invoice4 As Object)' and so the program won't run. What am I doing wrong?
Public Class Form1
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Dim obj1 As New Invoice(Val(TextBox1.Text))
TextBox1.Text &= obj1.Invoice1 & vbNewLine
TextBox1.Text &= obj1.Invoice2 & vbNewLine
TextBox1.Text &= obj1.Invoice3 & vbNewLine
TextBox1.Text &= obj1.Invoice4 & vbNewLine

I want to create a report that will be printed on a special form (a readymade invoice form). The form has a custom size which is not one of the standard page sizes. The report must show the printer selection dialog first and then send the report directly to the printer without showing preview dialog. I know how to create a report using a ReportViewer but my problem is how can I control the page custom size? How I can print the report without showing the ReportViewer at run time? Is the ReportViewer control is the right control to use for such report? Or should I use the PrintDocument object?

I have created a chart with MS chart control on a form. On the form there is a menubar. Now i want to only print the chart and not the menubar and form layout. When i use one of the next two lines the whole form is printed.
Me.PrintForm1.Print()
'Or
PrintForm1.Print(Me, PowerPacks.Printing.PrintForm.PrintOption.Scrollable)
I also want the printed chart to be a fixed size. The size of the chart depends on the size of the form. The size of the form depends on the resolution of my screen. So the printed chart isn't always the correct size.

I have a small program written in VB10 that allows me to enter checks and then print a deposit slip. The maximum number of checks per printed page is 32 so if I enter more than 32 two pages will print. I send the output to print preview and then,
if everything looks OK, I will print from there. If there are two pages to print all the pages show up in print preview. However when I print, only the last page prints. I am printing two copies so I have one for the deposit and one for my records. One page prints fine: I get two copies of the page. If I have two pages to print then I get two copies of page two.
