baffling Printer mystery

edited October 2001 in General
I wonder if you can point me in the right direction. I have baffling
mystery. To do printing in an app, I have little dialog that allaws the user
to choose: email, PDF output (via ExtraDev), Printer or preview..

The preview, email and pdf (basically the same thing) work fine. But when I
want to do a print what gets printed is the form itself without any of the
text. It's as though I'm pointing the form at the printer and I'm baffled.
Any suggestions?

Thanks

    Ok well I'll tell you now: I had a method called "Print" which instead of
    overriding TForm's Print, didn't.

    I was printing the form. I changed it to PrintOutput and all is now well.
