Re: Printing Files Member 14977515-Nov-04 13:12 Member 1497751 5-Nov-04 13:12  You can do that with Crystal Report. That´s a VB component to print. Very easy to use. Re: Printing Files Mekong River5-Nov-04 16:34 Mekong River 5-Nov-04 16:34  How to do that? Do you have any document or resource on the web to demonstrate about this technique? A thousand mile of journey, begin with the first step. APO-CEDC Save Children Norway-Cambodia Office Re: Printing Files Member 14977516-Nov-04 4:52 Member 1497751 6-Nov-04 4:52  You can see this page: http://www.businessobjects.com/products/reporting/crystalreports/appdev.asp . But it is really easy. In VB you have to add the Crystal Report Component; in VB.NET it is named ReportDocument. The file you want to print has to be a crystal report document (you can download the software in the site above). Then you have just to work with properties and methods. Ex in VB.NET: reportDocument1.PrintOptions.PrinterName = "" Re: Printing Files Dave Kreskowiak6-Nov-04 5:39 Dave Kreskowiak 6-Nov-04 5:39  File path to what kind of document? There printer object cannot interpret every kind of document. Actually, it can't interpret ANY kind of document. What you do depends entirely on what you're trying to print.

I have an installed PDF printer that i want to send my documents (MS Office Documents) too and also a 'print' command. The printer will do the rest. Does this make it harder or easier to print the files or is the situation still the same? Thanks Chris Re: Printing Files Dave Kreskowiak8-Nov-04 2:53 Dave Kreskowiak 8-Nov-04 2:53  That's better. Word will actually have to do the printing. The PDF printer will just render into a .PDF what Word outputs when it prints. If you're just going to convert Word documents, you can use the Word (Office) automation model to load the document, select the printer, then print the document. It's been covered dozens of times in the forum, just search for Word using the "Search comments" link.

What i need to do is to put/read everything in a word file, which may contains tables, images and all format and alignment. My problem is how can i read everything for that word file and store in a place, when a user request, then i have to pull out this doc file or just a few line from this doc with exact look? i have been search in so many forums but still can't get any help for it. But i am sure there is so way can do it, it may be a third party component. I don't know. Can anyone give me some help? Please help urgently. Thanks Yolip Re: Ms Word automation Anonymous4-Nov-04 7:33 Anonymous 4-Nov-04 7:33  Your going to have a nasty time with this. I don't know of any 3rd party component that will do anything like this. Also, the formatting of a Word document can come from many places. In order to get the look of the document exact, you'll also need the styles section of the current document, printer settings for margins, EVERYTHING. You'd be much better off showing the entire document that the section you want came in rather that trying to duplicate what was in the original document. Re: Ms Word automation yolip4-Nov-04 15:53 yolip 4-Nov-04 15:53  it can done with vb, i just don't know how. maybe my explanation not clear, let me give an example here, i use ## to indicate where to start selection and end in word file: ## word block A . . images here . . table here... . images. some words here ## ## word block B . . images here . . table here... . images. some words here ## with above example, my problem have to recognize there has two blocks of contents, and then copy and store it in a place (may be database). The program will then show each block in grid(don't know can or not) for user to select block for their further use (edit/delete/print out). my problem is how to read them in block and store it. then display it as the exact format when user required. hope that can make more understanding. thanks yolip Re: Ms Word automation codemind8-Nov-04 5:26 codemind 8-Nov-04 5:26  Hi, You need to be familiar with the object model of Word. Create a Word object and use the vba commands to put everything in place. If you can code in VBA Word you can do it in VB. Regards, Codemind Re: Ms Word automation yolip8-Nov-04 15:45 yolip 8-Nov-04 15:45  Sorry, my question is i don't know how to solve that problem. Re: Ms Word automation codemind8-Nov-04 23:01 codemind 8-Nov-04 23:01  Hi, I believe you want some example code? I will take a look for some examples if I can find some. Maybe you could explain some more details of the program you want to write. What do you mean with "and store in a place"? Do you have knowledge of the Word object model? Marcel Re: Ms Word automation codemind8-Dec-04 21:16 codemind 8-Dec-04 21:16  Hi Yolip, I found an article on this board. In this article they describe how to get all the objects in a Word document. http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/SpokenWord_1_0.asp[^] I'll hope this brings you further to your goal. Codemind using dll's johnjsm4-Nov-04 6:07 johnjsm 4-Nov-04 6:07  Hi, How to you link a program to a dll so that you can use functions associated with that dll. in vb6 you can just add a refference to the dll but with vb.net you can't. Any ideas Re: using dll's Dave Kreskowiak4-Nov-04 7:03 Dave Kreskowiak 4-Nov-04 7:03  VB.NET has that capability and then some. There are two kinds of .DLL's that VB6/VB.NET can use. Library .DLL's that have a bunch functions in them that you can call only by using the Declare statement and COM .DLL's, like you mentioned, where you add a reference to the COM objects, that the registered .DLL exports, and use them like any other class. VB.NET can do both just as easily, and with far more flexibility than VB6 can. For the COM version, all you do is right-click your project in the Solution Explorer, then click "Add Reference...". In the dialog box that comes up, just click the COM tab to see everything that is registered on your machine. Click the ones your want, then click the Select button, then OK.
