Hey all, I have a spreadsheet that someone has created and I would like to port this spreadsheet over to a stand alone app (don't worry I'm not asking you how to do this :soap:). It does a bunch of calculations then outputs 2 very distinct forms. These forms are really just pretty looking spreadsheets that are exported to a PDF and then saved and printed via a macro.

My question is, what is the best way to reproduce these 2 "forms" in my .NET project without relying on Office? Should I build 2 hidden forms that look just like these 2 spreadsheets and just print those? Or is there some clever way to accomplish this that I'm unaware of? The appearance of these 2 forms needs to be identical to what they are right now in the spreadsheet. Would love to hear opinions.
