WM_PRINT does not work

[Farabi]

Anyone know why WM_PRINT does not work on my app?
I used it like this

Code Select Expand


invoke SendMessage,hEdit,WM_PRINT,main_screen.DC, PRF_CLIENT or PRF_ERASEBKGND
; hEdit is RichEdit Handle

Your DC is set to be the screen and not the printer which means it 'may' be working just fine, how would you know otherwise? If you wish to send output to the printer you need to do so by setting the DC correctly. Not happening in that code sample.
