Is there not a way to do a simple print like in vb6?
Printer.Print
All I want to do is put a could of text lines on a page.
 
Hi, Adam

Nothing that simple, I'm afraid. You can do more with printing in VB.Net,
but it certainly isn't as simple as it was in VB6. This is one of the
areas we plan to address for the next major release of the product, but
we're not there yet. One approach you could take would be to create a VB6
ActiveX DLL and print from there.

Thank you for choosing the MSDN Managed Newsgroups,

Take a look at the system.drawing.printing class. There's
a sub-class called PrintDocument. I believe it will let
you print text.
