For printing the details  you can use the BasejDialog facility..

using printable,
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.print.*;

public class PrintableComponent implements Printable {
Component c;
public PrintableComponent(Component c) { this.c = c; }

public void print() throws PrinterException {
PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
PageFormat format = job.pageDialog(job.defaultPage());
job.setPrintable(this, format);
if (job.printDialog())
job.print();
}

public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat format, int pagenum) {
if (pagenum > 0)
return Printable.NO_SUCH_PAGE;

Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;

g2.transl
c.paint(g2);

return Printable.PAGE_EXISTS;
}
}

((<WBR>Component c) { this.c

could somebody please explain the difference between ( ) and { }? there are
a couple of programs in my programming book where they use { } instead of (
) in the arguments. Please explain?

does anybody know if the JVM AND Textpad are compatible with Vista yet?
