Property Type

Read-only property

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Property hDC As Long

Return Type

A long value which represents a handle to the device context of a printer.

Remarks

Not available at design time.

You can use the hDC property to refer to the handle for a printer device context. This provides a value you can pass to an ImagXpress control when you want to print from these controls.

Note: All printing that is done external to the PrintPRO control will not be viewable in print preview unless you also print to the print preview metafile handle using the hMetaDC property.
