That depends on how you're printing the contents of the box... An explaination of how you're doing this might help.

I am using the PrintDialog tool right out of the box from Visual Studio same as I am doing for OpenDialog, PrintPreviewDialog, etc.
Maybe a better explanation is that I am using a for next loop to write two arrays of data to the rich text box. After each element I insert a number of tabs so that I end up with columns of data (there are three columns in total). Like I said in my original message the form looks fine when it is run. When I go to print or use print preview all of the data is squished together. For some unknown reason (at least to me) my tabs have been removed.

Your tabs are getting reduced down to the size of a single space character, since in GDI+, they don't have a width, and there is no such thing as a tab stop. Printing with the PrintDialog, and the other objects you're using, isn't WYSIWYG. If you really need to do this in a RichTextBox, you'll have to modify the RTB by creating your own, supplying all the formatting and printing code.
Fortunately for you, someone ahs already done this, here[^]. I hope it works for you.

You would have a click event handler for the button, and that code would create an instance of the second form and call ShowModal on it.

how do i get the event handler

Well, I would respond with a bit of general advice. More so than ever, there are people downloading VB Express, looking at the IDE and deciding they can write a windows program. Most of these people will fail. If you want to learn to code, you need to learn the language before you play with it's frameworks, write console apps before windows apps. It seems to me that it's likely you're at this level, and should take a step back.
The easiest way to create an event handler for a button is to double click on it in the design view.

Stop, backup, and learn the basics[^] before you beat us to death with easy questions.

What Framework restriction???
Also, your question would be better handled in the Mobile Development[^] forum.

Hi all
In my app i am creating a thread and cheking the status.
When i tried to check the status of the thread after the execution of the method that it is reffering, It is giving that thread state is Stopped.
what doest it mean.
Is that the thread object is still alive.
1) If so how to destroy the thread object once its state is "Stopped".
2) The other issue is how to restart a thread which is in stopped state.

You don't have to do anything. The GC will collect the Thread object once it falls out of scope.

Not possible. Once a thread is stopped, there's no restarting it. You have to create a new thread is you want it to run again.

Setting the font of the Form will not change the font of the controls on it. (Each control will have it's own Font property.) It only changes the font of the titlebar and any text directly written, using only certain methods, to the form surface itself.
Also, you change the Font by creating a new Font object, not specifying a string. One possibility is:
myForm.Font = New Font("Tahoma", 8)
The Font class has about a dozen constructors, so you can find out more here[^].

Hi,
I am using VS2005 and want to use the System.Web.UI.Design namespace to provide a user interface to edit list items.
However, VB 2005 doesnt recognise the name space. It underlines the namespace with a blue line and the message is :
"Namespace or type specified in 'System.Web.Ui.Design' doesnt contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or type is defined and contains at least 1 public member. Make sure imported element name doesnt use any aliases"
Is there an equivilant to this namespace?
