    Resolved [RESOLVED] Need help to show adjustable layout of invoice in a picturebox in vb6

    I have a invoice/receipt to print from my vb6 form. I need to show its preview in a picturebox with contents. User must be able to change the x,y (currentx,currenty of printer object) of the position of details to print. How can this be made possible? ThankU

    each print area should be in separate picture boxes, then they can be moved and resized in relation to the background (page size) picturebox
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    There would only be text. Do I need separate pictureboxes for that?

    No - just a simple wrapper-function for the Text-Output is enough:

    Code:
    Sub TextOutOn(Canvas As PictureBox, sText As String, x, y)
    Canvas.CurrentX = x
    Canvas.CurrentY = y
    Canvas.Print sText
End Sub
