Thanks Seth. I am downloading their demo. This seems to be a
commerical product. Are you saying there is no built-in way of
outputing a database to a printer in Real Basic?
Well it depends on your definition of built-in, but no I wasn't saying
anything of the sort.
There's no direct way to print from a database because that's to
generalized and there wouldn't be any cure-all way to do it. It's a two
step process.
If you want to print, you retrieve the records that you want to print,
use the OpenPrinter or OpenPrinterDialog functions to get a graphics
object and draw into it (which prints what you draw).
