Sounds simple -- but it's not.ÿ A lot depends on your application.ÿ If it's a database application, I'd suggest using a reporting tool like Crystal Reports which provides an option for Print Preview.ÿ Otherwise, if you're using the Printer object in VB you'd have to draw your output to a form or picturebox on a form to simulate how your output will look when printed.

i'm using vb 6.0. the problem is that we are using images that can be modified and we want to integrate a print preview capability to it.
