I need to pass variables from one form to another for printing purposes. I'm using the PrintForm component to print the form.

I'm familiar with this concept using VBScript and .asp... However, I am at a loss for how to do so using VB 2008.

I never tried printing nor VB 2008, but have you try declaring public variables in modules?
