Hi,
I have a bunch of specialised medical forms that I need to print information onto. The user needs to be able create the windows forms (this data is saved in the database) i.e.: 2 text fields and a checkbox.
Once the windows form is created the user ideally needs to be able to create the printable report by dragging and dropping the 2 text fields and the checkbox on to any part of the report, this needs to be pixel perfect as the user will be printing on to a pre-made form that gets inserted into the printer.
The windows forms aren't the issue, at the moment the user can dynamically create a form template containing a number of windows controls (these don't need to be positioned), mainly textboxes and checkboxes.
It's the printing that is the issue. Ideally I would like the user to be able drag and drop the textboxes, etc onto any part of a new report these will have to be pixel perfect and then assign the new report template to the form template. So when the form is filled out and the user clicks print the corresponding report gets called and printed.
We have something similar set up using word only thing is word doesn't allow the pixel perfect positioning of controls that we need.
Anybody have any suggestions for the drag and drop report?
thanks in advance
