Your post is a bit confusing. What do want to print? Something into a textbox? ie...

text1.text="this is something"

something from a textbox? ie..

printer.print text1.text
printer.enddoc


If I am way off, please forgive.

The code below will draw a box around text printed. Note that at the end of each printer.print line that has text there is a ";" this is to hold the printer position to get the printer.CurrentX position.

The If Printer.CurrentX > EndX is used to insure that the longest line of text is inclosed in the box



Dim StartX As Single
Dim EndX As Single
Dim StartY As Single
Dim EndY As Single

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Printer.FontSize = 20
StartX = Printer.CurrentX
StartY = Printer.CurrentY

Printer.Print "Hello World";
EndX = Printer.CurrentX
Printer.Print

Printer.Print "This Will Draw A Box";
if Printer.CurrentX > EndX then EndX = Printer.CurrentX
Printer.Print

Printer.Print "Around the Text Printed";
if Printer.CurrentX > EndX then EndX = Printer.CurrentX
Printer.Print

EndY = Printer.CurrentY
Printer.Line (StartX, StartY)-(EndX, EndY), , B
Printer.EndDoc
End Sub

I don't know much about pulling data in from Excel. Or do you mean that you want the information tableted as it is in Excel. The 10 x 3 box is that 3 inches wide by 10 inches high? Is there additional data ex. a seperate sheet per student or person? Will all the data fit inside a 10 x 3 box or does the program have to know to continue on another page?

 

[Thanks]

ok thanks
