I have a value in a textbox that I assign from a command button. This works
fine, but when I try to print the document none of the text in the textbox
prints.

I have tried Tools | Options | View tab | check the
"Drawings" box and uncheck the "Picture placeholders" box | Print
tab | check the "Drawing objects" box | OK.

It still does not work, I also tried on two different printers that have
different print drivers and neither could print the text.

Try going to Tools/Options/Print and turn off "Background printing".

I tried that and it did not work, but I did fix the problem myself.
It had to do with the textbox layout, it was "In line with text" and that
was causing the print isssue. I changed it to be in front of text and then
the textbox values started appearing when printed.
Thanks for your help
