Hi all again,

Here goes:

I have this database application in wich I want to print a recordset out of the database.

I'm using only code to do this cause if i use the designersmode (datareport) make a report and I compile the whole thing it returns an error message if i execute the call datareport.
that message is
Class is not registered.
I'm trying to figure out what it means but I can't find the problem. :(

So what I did next was making a print function where I defined what i wanted to be printed.

Now, next thing that happens i can't get the lines in some sort of a column.

Well here is a piece of the code I use to print the document of record set.

Dim sSubject As String

sSubject = txtSubject

printer.print "Subject:"; txtSubject

now what i want to do is to make sure everything what i have put in the txtFIELDS apears just under eachother like in a column

I just can't figure this out, so if anyone can..

plz

HELP ME!!!!

Ok i guess that the string isnt formatted at all?

if this is the case you need to trim the strings to get rid of leading/trailing spaces and then split up the string into sections. Write a function that fills out a string to make it a certain length use the space command.

then for each line just call the print command. This should format it how you want
