@luis..
i figured out that stuff.. but my problem is.. that i am having a vertical scrollbar on my form.
if i am using that code. then what happens is.. when i scroll down and again scroll up.. the content gets all messy.. the content below and up the scroll bar gets mixed.. as i am remapping controls to the visible client area.. so once i scroll down and rescroll up.. the content that was earlier under the scrollbar is now on the main screen..

i hope i m being able to convey u the problem

@LUIS. brother i am really sorry.. .the code u posted is working fine...
thanks a lot.. thanku very much..

m having one more issue.. if u can help ?

nw i want to print the form.. i am using the printform command . .with scrollable option... but when i print i am not getting the complete data on page.. may be because the data does not fit on one page.. can u help me with how to restrict the data to be printed to one page?

mukulmukul,

- just before printing resize the form to a size that fits the size and orientation of the printing page (ex: me.with=800:me.height=600)

- call the resize event

- call the printing action

PS. you can save the original size and call the resize event again to get the original form.
