Help with what. Could you explain what exactly you are trying to do. There is no question mentioned in your post.

Also please use code tags when you are posting code here in forums.

i have a mdi text editor with as many child forms as i like. i have a function that i can change the colour and font of my text in any child form i want.

this is my problem.

when i goto print preview the text is black and normal size and not what i changed it to in the child form.

the code in the above post i made is not working correctly and i need help in making it right.

That is in BEGIN PRINT, not PREVIEW, which is why you don't see it.
