Here is my code:
Imports System.Data.OleDb

Namespace Print
Public Class Form1
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
Dim PrintC As PrinterClass
Dim conn As OleDb.OleDbConnection
Dim connectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=..\\db1.mdb"
Dim sql As String = String.Empty
Dim ds As DataSet

FillDataGrid()
'//create printerclass object
PrintC = New PrinterClass(PrintDocument1, dataGrid)
End Sub
Private Sub FillDataGrid()
Try
Dim dt As New DataTable
Dim ds As New DataSet
ds.Tables.Add(dt)
Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter
con.Open()
da = New OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * from klient ", con)
da.Fill(dt)
con.Close()
dataGrid.DataSource = dt.DefaultView
Dim dTable As DataTable
For Each dTable In ds.Tables
Dim dgStyle As DataGridTableStyle = New DataGridTableStyle
dgStyle.MappingName = dTable.TableName
dataGrid.TableStyles.Add(dgStyle)
Next
' DataGrid settings
dataGrid.CaptionText = "TE GJITHE KLIENTET"
dataGrid.HeaderFont = New Font("Verdana", 12)
dataGrid.TableStyles(0).GridColumnStyles(0).Width = 60
dataGrid.TableStyles(0).GridColumnStyles(1).Width = 140

dataGrid.TableStyles(0).GridColumnStyles(3).Width = 140
dataGrid.TableStyles(0).GridColumnStyles(4).Width = 140

dataGrid.TableStyles(0).GridColumnStyles(5).Width = -1
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try
End Sub
Private Sub btnPrint_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnPrint.Click
'create printerclass object
PrintC = New PrinterClass(PrintDocument1, dataGrid)
PrintDocument1.Print()
End Sub

'create printerclass object
PrintC = New PrinterClass(PrintDocument1, dataGrid)
''preview
Dim ps As New PaperSize("A4", 840, 1150)
ps.PaperName = PaperKind.A4
PrintDocument1.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSize = ps
PrintPreviewDialog1.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal
PrintPreviewDialog1.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterScreen
PrintPreviewDialog1.ClientSize = New Size(600, 600)
PrintPreviewDialog1.ShowDialog()
End Sub
Private Sub PrintDocument1_PrintPage(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument1.PrintPage
'print grid
Dim morepages As Boolean = PrintC.Print(e.Graphics)
If (morepages) Then
e.HasMorePages = True
End If
End Sub
End Class
End Namespace
This is how data looks in DataGrid (that's perfect)...
and here is how it looks when I click PrintPreview. (I don't want the time to appear there, the "12:00:00" part. in database the date is stored as Short Date (10-Dec-12)
Can somebody suggest a way around that?
