Body
I have the printer installed and working on an intranet server and I want to programmatically send "hello world" to that default printer. This seems like the simplest thing but I've been googling for a couple hours with no success. (note: I am developing asp.net mvc on the deployment machine itself which is running Windows 7) I tried to translate an example from VB <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/371384/best-way-to-print-from-c-sharp-net">here</a> into C# but it said "no printers are installed". <pre><code>public void TestPrint() { var x = new PrintDocument(); x.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(PrintPage); x.Print(); } private void PrintPage(Object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e) { var textToPrint = "Hello world"; var printFont = new Font("Courier New", 12); var leftMargin = e.MarginBounds.Left; var topMargin = e.MarginBounds.Top; e.Graphics.DrawString(textToPrint, printFont, Brushes.Black, leftMargin, topMargin); } </code></pre> I had also tried a snippet from MSDN <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms552912%28v=vs.100%29.aspx#1" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a> but it said it did not recognize the printer name. <pre><code>public void TestPrint(string msg) { var server = new LocalPrintServer(); var queue = LocalPrintServer.GetDefaultPrintQueue(); // Call AddJob var job = queue.AddJob(); // Write a Byte buffer to the JobStream and close the stream var stream = job.JobStream; var buffer = UnicodeEncoding.Unicode.GetBytes(msg); stream.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length); stream.Close(); } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
