PrintPreviewControl

[gsb58@hotmail.com]

Hi!

I seem to be missing something when using the PrintPreviewDia log.

On a form I have a monthCalendar which, at runtime, will display all
months of the year. Now I have routine for printing the calendar and it
works fine. However, when I try to bind this object to the
PrintPreviewDia log, the dialog is blank.

Can anybody guide me?

I have: PrintDocument(p Doc1) and PrintPreviewDia log(ppDlg1) components.

The code for the btnPreview is as follows:

PrintDocument pDoc1 = new PrintDocument() ;
PrintPreviewDia log ppDlg1 = new PrintPreviewDia log();
ppDlg1.Document = pDoc1;
ppDlg1.ShowDial og();

Now I guess I'm missing how to bind the calendar to the pDoc1, right?

I would be very happy if somebody can see the obvious mistake I'm
doing! :-)

You need to handle the BeforePrint, PrintPage and EndPRint events of the
PrintDocument. This will give you access to the graphics of the print
document to draw things on. You then need to get the calender control to
draw itself onto a page of the print document.

You might want to read into Printing more
