yes that is right.  I just get the value of the textbox in the form and link it to my datareport.
thanks for the idea..
Can I make a print preview using datareport? Or do you have an idea of any advance technique in print preview using visual basic.

no best concept is datareport. you can use form as print preview but problem is form can't expand upto A4. The form can use to A5 sheets.
If you have only text you can use Rich text box and u can align but that is too difficult but u can try it.

  ohohoh! I am really having a hard time doing this printing.
thanks for your time and ideas. I will try to use this datareport in my printing and allign each text boxes.

I guess Yahoo. He is sending single character email id which is actually not supported.

It would appear that the local-part of the address cannot be a single character. There MAY be a requirement that the address have at least 2 characters. You can test this yourself just by adding various addresses to the To property and see what happens. You do this WITHOUT actually sending the message!
Now, if that works, the limit appears to be imposed by Yahoo's mail server, in which case, there's nothing you can do about it, unless you try using a different SMTP server.

hello,
i tried various email addresses but still i got the same error.
do i need to add any reference in my project or something like that just to send email?
thanks.

You've already added the appropriate reference, otherwise the code wouldn't even compile.
It would appear that the server is rejecting your attempts to send mail.

Hi everybody
I already knew that we can use visual basic to control the other application such
as Microsoft Word, Excel, etc. How s about the other application. Is there any general method
we can use to interface visual basic with any software
For example: currently, I am doing measurement with PC as the monitor device. Every time, I must copy
the result by hand. If there s a way for me to interface visual basic with the software,the result can be copied automatically (to some text file, for example)
Best regards.

There is no way to control a piece of software that doesn't seek to expose a method of control, unless it's through getting window handles and sending events to controls, which is notoriously flaky and unreliable.

Thank you for ur response.
I still have some doubts. Can we use the functions in the DLL of the software

It is not a very clean way of doing it but I have controlled an application using a combination of system.diagnostics.process.start and sendkeys
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8c6yea83(VS.85).aspx[^] You can use this to have some control over the application, it could work if you don't need to do anything special... I used this to make an application print each time a different files was open. When trying to do this just figure out what key strokes it takes to do the process you are trying to accomplish.

Hi All!
I think they mean 'unable' instead of 'enable'. As for the 'and my Application Design is like that' I have no idea.

I would say that your core issue is that VB6 is crap, unsupported, and extinct. Why are you using it ? ( Also, as others said, you've not actually asked a question, did you mean to ask how to send mail ? )
I would suggest two things:
1 - write meaningful headers, 'VB code' doesn't cut it
2 - make sure you put VB6 in the header, it is literally a dead language, and you need to do all you can to attract the few poor suckers on this earth still stuck writing it.

I have a .Net interop .dll. The .dll is registered with regasm. If I open VB6 and use the following syntax, everything is peachy:
Dim o As New Utils.ObjectChecker
msgbox o.CheckObjects("C:\windows\system32")
However I must be able to call this particular interop .dll without a reference in the VB6 project, so I change to the code as follows:
Dim o As Object
Set o = CreateObject("Utils.ObjectChecker")
msgbox o.CheckObjects("C:\windows\system32")
When I attempt to recompile and run in VB6, I get: Run-time error 429. ActiveX component can't create object.
I found the following MS support article and have verified I have a valid parameterless constructor, register for COM interop, etc, etc (obviously this is the case since example 1 works fine).
Any obvious ideas on what I might be overlooking or doing wrong here?
Thanks guys (and gals if there are any?)
