Demonstrate PrintPreviewDialog?

[Psynic]

Hi guys, i was wondering if anyone could demonstrate the proper way to use PrintPreviewDialog. the goal in this situation is to simply open the print preview form to print what is in my main textbox for a notepad application. I have checked out the tutorial on the site for making a notepad

//Declare preview as a new PrintPreviewDialog
PrintPreviewDialog preview = new PrintPreviewDialog();
//Declare prntDoc_PrintPage as a new EventHandler for prntDoc's Print Page
prntDoc.PrintPage += new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventHandler(prntDoc_PrintPage);
//Set the PrintPreview's Document equal to prntDoc
preview.Document = prntDoc;
//Show the PrintPreview Dialog
if (preview.ShowDialog(this) == DialogResult.OK)
{
//Generate the PrintPreview
prntDoc.Print();
}

I get an error on this line of the tutorial

prntDoc.PrintPage += new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventHandler(prntDoc_PrintPage);

It says that prntDoc_PrintPage doesnt exsist in the current context even if i add

System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument prntDoc = new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument();

to the beginning. any ideas? +rep as always

I don't know whats giving you the error I get it to, but I searched up and down Google and can't find a way to print preview a textboxs text. What you might have to do is save the textbox.text as a temporary document then print preview that but I'm not sure.

k! i figured some of it out..

            PrintDocument prntDoc = new PrintDocument();
            PrintPreviewDialog pDialog = new PrintPreviewDialog();
            pDialog.Show();

opens the print preview dialog but i cant figure out how to get it to import the text in richTextBox1 to the printpreview form.
