Cannot print out form image from IDE

S

StrandElectric

I can print out the code of a form from the IDE but not the form image It's
greyed out and CTRL-P is inoperative). I used to be able to do this in vb6.
Any ideas? (NB: not a run time requirement but an aid to working on coding).

Open Word (or Paint, etc.). Run your application.

When viewing the form you want to print, press Alt+PrtScn, then Alt+Tab
to display Word (or Paint), then Ctrl+V to paste it into Word.

Repeat for other forms.

Then print your forms from Word (or Paint, etc.).

Thanks again Jason. I worked that workaround out late last night! What a
pity it is necessary though. It was immediate from the IDE in vb6!
