I need to add an IRS tax printable form to my program.
Q.Hi everybody, I need to add an IRS tax printable form to my program. I would like to give my user an opportunity to print out a form that will be filled in automatically, with no option of editing the form. I think the IRS will provide the forms (in some format?) already on disk. How do I add it to my program? As a report, or on a form where I can place controls over the lines on the form (so I can complete the form) and make it all read only? How do I size my page in VFP so that it resembles an actual page when I print it? And that's a great idea about the scan, it should work perfect! What do you think ?
A.Scan the form as a Gif. In the Report Form, create an OLE picture object and stretch it to cover the entire page. Use this to display the scanned form. Then place your fields over the picture whereever you want the data to appear. Does a report with no header or footer do it for you? Also, you may need to adjust the page size to "whole page" not just "printable page" and perhaps clip the margins off the scanned image a little bit.
