Please change your tag. It should not be under datatable. Also improve your question, provide which database you are using, what is the tool, how you are printing.

Print where? What you mean by "unnecessary column"?

I have 24 columns. If I use Print functionality of the data table, then I see 24 columns in the print preview. I do not need 4 columns from end. So once I click on Print i should be able to see 20 columns.

I'd suggest to use PrintDocument class[^]. Here you'll find bit more details: Print DataSet or DataTable contents from VB.NET[^]

Note that number of coulumns to print is defined here:

VB

aNumColumns = myDataSet.Tables(aTblIndex).Columns.Count - 1

With myDataSet.Tables(aTblIndex)
    For aCol = 0 To aNumColumns

You need to change above code to your needs as follow:

VB

aNumColumns = DataTable1.Columns.Count - 5

With DataTables1
    For aCol = 0 To aNumColumns
