I have created a form using a number of Drop Down boxs.
I want to be able to print the form but would like to clean
the printout up by removing the arrows from the printed page.
Is there a simple way to do this?

Drop down arrows shouldn't appear in the printout. I have many files that use drop downs and I print them out all the time just fine.
Must be a setting then because mine are printing.
When you said that I thought maybe it was just showing in the print preview
But that is not the case I printed it out and the arrows all show up on the printout.
Can you post an example file?
I remember from old days there was an option to show/print "nonprint characters", perhaps that's what's messing it up for you.
If you are using a combo box then try this.
Right Click/Format Control/Properties
Uncheck "Print Object"
Unchecking "Print Object" removes the input from the printout.
Oh... Whoops. I googled it, sorry.
I have attached a one liner.
If you go to print preview you will see thee Arrow is indeed going to be a part of the printout.
I need the info included inside the box but not the arrow.
Found this also, but I don't know how to use it:
...in the code that does the printing, put something like
ComboBox1.ShowDropButtonWhen = 0
Can you use a drop down list created via Data Valdation? I use those and they print out nicely.
