I am not having a problem getting an Hdc. Maybe I need to clarify my initial post. I am trying to print out paper forms that are to be filled out by data in the DB and from checkbox controls on the GUI form. All of these forms are printed using Windows API commands like "TextOut" and "Rectangle" etc. The problem I have is that when I need the text changed on the paper printed out forms I need to change the text in the code and then recompile the app. My question is is there a better my that is easier to change when the text on the paper forms need to be altered. Some times I am too far into the next version and cannot recompile to make changes. The other thing I was thinking about was making more than one .exe that way I could recompile the code that creates the paper forms rather than the whole app.

Thanks
