I remember a loooong time ago, or at least I do, that you could tag some portion of the web page to not be printed when you did a file print. Is this possible and if so, anyone remember how to do it?

I use a print stylesheet to specify what's printed and what's not. Just set up a separate styelsheet for print and specify display:none; for any elements you don't want printed such as navigation or footer etc.

My CSS skills are 0...so could you show me how to add it into this page? 

<!-- #include file="dbQS.asp" -->
<%
strPONumber = request.querystring("PONumber")

ssql = "DELETE FROM RcvgLabels"
dbc.execute(ssql)

ssql = "INSERT INTO RcvgLabels ( [PO Number], [Part #], [Qty Recd], [DEE ORDER #], Customer, [Mfg Name], ID, Locator, CUSTNAME, [PO #], INSPECT )"
ssql = ssql & " SELECT PORECGS1.[PO Number], INVENTORYMASTER1.[Part #], PORECGS1.[Qty Recd], PORECGS1.[DEE ORDER #], PORECGS1.Customer, INVENTORYMASTER1.[Mfg Name], INVENTORYMASTER1.ID, INVENTORYMASTER1.Locator, PORECGS1.Customer AS CUSTNAME, PORECGS1.[PO Number] AS [PO #], INVENTORYMASTER1.INSPECT"
ssql = ssql & " FROM INVENTORYMASTER1 INNER JOIN PORECGS1 ON INVENTORYMASTER1.[Part #] = PORECGS1.[Part #]"
ssql = ssql & " WHERE (PORECGS1.[PO Number] = '"&strPONumber&"') AND (PORECGS1.TAG <> 0)"
dbc.execute(ssql)

ssql = "UPDATE PORECGS1 SET TAG = 0 WHERE (TAG <> 0) AND ([PO Number] = '"&strPONumber&"')"
dbc.execute(ssql)

set rs = server.CreateObject("adodb.Recordset")
ssql = "SELECT ID, [Part #] AS Part, [Mfg Name] AS Mfg, CUSTNAME, [PO #] AS PO, [DEE ORDER #] AS OrderNum, ID, INSPECT"
ssql = ssql & " FROM RcvgLabels"
rs.Open ssql, dbc, adOpenForwardOnly,adLockReadOnly

set rs1 = server.CreateObject("adodb.Recordset")
ssql = "SELECT OH, OO FROM INVENTORYMASTER1 WHERE ([Part #] = '"&rs("Part")&"')"
rs1.Open ssql, dbc, adOpenForwardOnly,adLockReadOnly

if not rs1.eof then
	intOH = rs1("OH")
	intOO = rs1("OO")
end if

rs1.close
set rs1=nothing

set rs1 = server.CreateObject("adodb.Recordset")
ssql = "SELECT [Qty Recd] AS QtyReceived FROM PORECGS1 WHERE ([PO Number] = '"&strPONumber&"')"
rs1.Open ssql, dbc, adOpenForwardOnly,adLockReadOnly

if not rs1.eof then
	intQtyReceived = rs1("QtyReceived")
end if

rs1.close
set rs1=nothing

intOH = intOH + intQtyReceived
intOO = intOO - intQtyReceived

ssql = "UPDATE INVENTORYMASTER1 SET OH = "&intOH&", OO = "&intOO&" WHERE ([PART #] = '"&rs("Part")&"')"
dbc.execute(ssql)

Ok well the best thing would be to add a span and a class around the Back to Receiving link. (I'll ignore all the font tags!!)

So you want the code to end up with: 

<span class="omit"><font face="verdana" size="3"><a href="Receiving.asp">Back to Receiving</a></font> </span>


Then you add a stylesheet link to the head of each page (note the media is specifically targetted at print rather than the normal screen): 

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="print.css"  />


(obviously you can change the path of wherever you want the stylesheet to live)

Then in this stylesheet - which is a blank document - nothing else at all in it you add: 
.omit{display:none;}


Then you can add a span around any inline (not block elements like Ps) element and it will be omitted during printing.

To do this in a block element you can forget the span itself and just add the class="omit" to the paragraph tag or list tag or whatever the block element is. I used a span in this case as there wasn't any other hook I could use here.

Generally when I do this I don't need to add a specific class or a span around stuff because my pages have a load of divs with ids and classes already in them to style the page via the normal stylesheet. So generally I only have to refer to already existing ids and classes and elements without having to add in a span or a class specifically to exclude during printing - if that makes any sense. It''s part of the joy of CSS - it reduces the code required in the page itself.
