My.Computer.Printers

Like many people I have struggled with printing in Visual Basic .Net 2003 and was looking forward to the My.Computer.Printers functionality in the new version.  Seems to be MIA in beta 2.  Hope it comes back.

    Unfortunately, we had to remove printing support from My and the .NET Framework because the APIs we were relying on (new for Whidbey) did not meet our quality bar, and required more time than we could afford.  However, we do plan on picking up where we left off in the next release, as we realize that a printing support is important to our customers.

    In the meantime, you might want to check out some of the huge improvements and innovations that have been made to SQL reporting services.  Its new report control can be hosted in Windows Forms to create professional looking reports for viewing and printing on the client--it's very cool!

    Thanks.
