Hi,

I have started newly development in blackberry application. I want to show(overlay) a bitmap field on video screen. It should not re size the video screen once it is appears. I have gone through the overlayControl interface of Blackberry 5 API.

I am not able to understand how to implement it. Can anybody help me out with a solution. I am under deadline and have no clue.

Thanks a lot in advance.

I have downloaded Jasper reporting tool. Can you provide some information about using this tool for printing JPanel.Please at least some dedicated tutorial for that purpose.

Thanks for the response, I have tried with jtable's print method. I t works fine for printing Jtable only. But I have to print a invoice formatted on a JPanel, so there will be other lots of other JtextComponents, along with Table and images.just like the attached image.

I have planned to preview the format in a Jframe on a JPanel then on button click of that Frame the Jpanel will be sent to the printer.
please help me with this.I have a deadline to meet. Any help will be gladly appreciated.

Hi,

I want to print the JPanel on a JFrame on along with one table . Below is the snapshot of that Frame.

Please help me out... please provide the steps. The contents are available on the web is not sufficient for printing components like JTable. I am a newbie so please provide help considering my level of experience and knowledge. I don even need ready made code... just a proper working lead.

Hi Jeanne,

I am open to use any database. However I am not familier with those. If I use these databases don't I have to install the database to the machine where my software is running. Please explain me elaborately. It'll be real help if you give me the steps to work with there db apps.
