Posts: 229                Hello,
I need to print a 10 page report...  cover page with date, client name, title, 
optional logo then other pages have basic text, page title, page number, 
graphs, tables of data from sGrid, or other text.

It is not a complicated report.  In VB I used a bunch of Printer.Print 
statements that have been debugged thru much trial and error.

In RB I have looked at:
- articles on printing
- sample code I found online "Report Printing Demos" from real world 2007
- RSReport
- TurboReport
etc.

I kind of see TurboReport as really easy to use.  However the PDF function 
generates a PDF in windows but it is really ugly and blurry... maybe the 
resolution is not good enough not sure.

I thought RSReport was really complicated... and no support offered.
Anyone have advice for me as I have not coded any of this yet...
Suggestions... been there done that tips.... some other library suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

Location: Portland, OR  USA                You should be able to translate your 
print statements into Graphics.DrawString statements.  That's the way I would 
go.
