Good day, I just wanted to follow-up on the already existing solution here as I have the same problem. The following are giving me errors in the above code

displayString += ESC1 + ESC5 + CNm + ESC6 + vbNewLine

CNm - do I need to declared this or maybe there is some referencing I missed.

the next one is in the line for

displayString += "Cashier: " + CStr(GlobalUserName) + vbTab.ToString()

CStr(GlobalUserName) - that is also prompting the same error, how do I declare it.

The last one is in the line

Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(strSQl, cnn)

cnn - I want to belive this is the connection string to the database, however when I replace it with what my string is (Con1), the error shifts to "da" ... is there something am missing

Thanks in advance, I really am stuck
