Maybe you can make a suggestion at
https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/Feedback
and ask them to implement the VB6-style printer object in the next version
of the Framework.
By then, you must be satisfied with what is currently offered, namely the
PrintDocument class.

**Silly me! I was hoping to create an application that would work in *all*
user enviroments, not just those with a new framework. Somehow we have to
get out of this continual upgrade rat-race. Imagine if all the tools in my
workshop had to be replaced every few months because they would not work
with each other.

I would also expect any suggestion of mine to be totally ignored by the same
people who ditched a throughly practical vb6 and substituted it with
something so much more abstract. See my long post!

Strand,

You got many suggestions for your problem, even as straight like I seldom
saw, however, you seems blind for those because of your truth that employees
from Microsoft do only stupid things.
