Hi,
Is it possible to write in VB6 an activeX that will receive a RecordSet and
display a data report and then print it on a local/network printer?

Yes, George, it's possible.

Of course, you might want a different looking printout for different
recordsets. Also, if you wished to alter the look of the report you would
need to distribute a new DLL.

Instead, you might want to look at turning XML into HTML (or some other
format) using XSLT. That way you can just change the XSLT (file) to get a
different looking report.
