    You can write your own printer drivers, but I don't think you can do it with VB. Microsoft has got something called the 'Devicedriver Software Development Kit', which allows you to create your own printer drivers. I just know it exists, but I haven't used it, but I assume that you will need to do that in C.

    This, I feel to alter or do something, because, for example, you open Ms-Word and then type some 3 or 4 pages, set the page size to say 4" X 4" then take the print out on a continous stationery, after printing the first page, it moves to second page but in between the first and second page, it leaves a single line space and also for second and third page. So the output looks like

    ***********
    ***********
    ***********

    ***********
    ***********
    ***********

    ***********
    ***********
    ***********


    I have a requirement, where I am taking the printout on a continous stationery, where the no of pages is unknown, and it is managed by Crystal Reports, I am using Print Icon of Crystal Toolbar to print.

    So this is giving me a very much problem.

    Sir, can you help me.

    Thanks,
    Shivakumar G.M.
