    <p>I have some code that is used to programmatically create a Document to send to the printer. It goes something like this:</p> <pre><code>private void pd_PrintPage(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs ev) { ev.Graphics.DrawImage(pictureBox1.Image, 50, 100); string drawToday="Date : "+strToday; string drawPolicyNo="Policy # : " + strPolicyNo; string drawUser="User : " + strUser; Font drawFont=new Font("Arial",30); SolidBrush drawBrush=new SolidBrush(Color.Black); PointF drawPointToday=new Point(50,400); PointF drawPointPolicyNo=new Point(50,450); PointF drawPointUser=new Point(50,500); ev.Graphics.DrawString(drawToday,drawFont,drawBrush,drawPointToday); ev.Graphics.DrawString(drawPolicyNo,drawFont,drawBrush,drawPointPolicyNo); ev.Graphics.DrawString(drawUser,drawFont,drawBrush,drawPointUser); } </code></pre> <p>Its effective code, but now I need to do the same procedure but instead write it to an image file so that it can be sent to a browser and printed from there. It should be relatively simple to reuse this code, but I am getting hung up, unfortunately, on what drawing surface to use in replacement of the PrintPageEventArgument. </p> <p>Thanks</p> <p><strong>Edit</strong>: THanks I get that I just need another Graphics object, but the Graphics object by itself does not have a public constructor, so what I am looking for is a suggestion on what object I need to substatiate to be able to create a Graphics object to draw on. I thought perhaps bitmap? Bitmaps are of course pixel based instead of point based so I was not sure that this is the best medium to use.</p>

    1. COYou can get a Graphics object from many different places such images and controls. You will probably want to look into the DpiX, DpiY, PageScale and PageUnit (and perhaps a couple of others that I don't recall right now) properties, in order to get graphics objects from different sources to behave in a similar manner. Use the debugger to investigate the values of the graphics object in your PrintPage event to get a good starting point.

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.
