    I wrote a program in Visual Basic Express.
    The program works well so far.

    I want to add a printed output to this program.
    I worked with the on line help and to add printing to my tiny program is extremly complicated.

    I was wondering if I cound add a button to print and have it open a web browser with the info on it. Then we can print from the web browser.

    Would this be easier than trying to program all the steps to set up printer and print function?

    Are there basic lines of code to do this or is it just as complicated?

    Thanks,
    Matt

    There's no real EASY button solution for this. It does require a bit of getting dirty from what I recall. If you want to create an HTML page and write the data to that, then that would work fine too. Probably would be easier in the long run to let the browser control the printing ;)
