printing controls

[vaibhavs]

Hi,

I want to create an application which will take a user input "Record Number", fetch corresponding data from MySQL and print the data on a bank cheque (bank check).

The critical part is printing text at exact positions on the cheque (check) like NAME, AMOUNT, Amount in words, DATE etc. Since cheques (checks) are pre-printed, we have to be very accurate in printing the data the the right position.

Please suggest how can I do this.

Thx

Have a look at my print udf. There is a link in my signature and in the first post I give links to other udfs which don't use a dll like mine does.

With that you can print in any font in any colour in any size or style in any position, and other things. My udf uses units of 0.1mm for positions (4 thousandths of an inch) which I expect is accurate enough for what you need.
