Thread: Print help

Hello,

In short, I started a new job and made the mistake of mentioning that I know a thing or two about java programming. Keep in mind that I am no programmer and my superiors know that.
I was asked if I would be able to implement a "print" function to a code that a former employee wrote.
The program this person wrote is basically a huge selection of buttons for options pertaining the business. Once a button is clicked , it saves an specific String into a variable.
I figure that I should be able to write something that returns all these variables into some sort of report and then create a button to print.

Is that possible? If so, how would I go about it?

PS: All my past experiences exposed (and I vaguely remmeber) me to was having a bunch of textfields that users would input data, have a big jtextfield by them and a button that would add all of the data entered into this big jtextfield and then a print function that would print the big jtextfield. That was years ago though and I don't know if there is any better/easier way to do it.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
