Test.PrintPreview is very old example (older then 6 years). It uses
screen object LINE that is not supported in version 2.5, because
latest version based at GDI+.

Test.PrintPreview works fine with BRIZ v1.9

I'll prepare new example for BRIZ v2.5

Hi Gianni,

The fastest way is using of Windows components from Pick-Basic for
reporting, such as MS-Office, Fast-Report, Cristal-Report .....
(through PB or COM or ActiveX or ATL/DLL API)

OwnerDrawScreen printing is more complex, but independent from third
part applications.

Hi Gianni,

Please, excuse me for waiting. We have found unexpected problems in
hidden screen printing. Problems solved.

Please, download latest version.
I have placed a simple example of print preview as file of this
group.

One of the easiest way for printing is-

1 Create hidden screen nCols X nRows (not only 80 or 120. It can be
any that supported by D3 (5-512) )
2 Execute TERM nCols nRows
3 Execute LIST or SORT
4 CRT one page of result onto Screen
5 Print screen
6 Goto 3 or 4, or 7
7 Delete hidden screen

You can add Watermark or any other graphics (image, for example) by
foreground and background Owner-Draw layers.

Hi Gianni,

Are You have played with Word and Excel ActiveX-es? It is very useful
and easy. You can add such functionality into the old style code
without modification of the whole project.
