I have other forms containing code like this as well, so if I print from this, it print to PDF automatically successfully, but if I close the form and open it again or any other form to print the second time then it breaks and brings about this error.

First-chance exception at 0x5adf7ecf (dui70.dll) in Pau_CGPA.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000001c. Unhandled exception at 0x5adf7ecf (dui70.dll) in Pau_CGPA.exe: 0xC000041D: 0xC000041D: An unhandled exception was encountered during a user callback.

So I don't know what is wrong.

Here's some points to consider:

  • Use the same objects as long as that is possible. No need to create new OleDbCommand cd1, cd2, ..etc. Just create one and reuse it by changing its CommandText and update its Parameters.
  • Always use parameterized queries and avoid string concatenating the SQL statements like WHERE [matric]='" & matricno.
  • When you create a new OleDbConnection the connection remains closed until you call the Open method explicitly. So checking the connection State just right after creating the object doesn't make any sense.
  • Keep the connection opened as long as you need to use the same connection again and again. So no need to close and reopen it.
  • The Read method and the HasRows property both return True if the OleDbDataReader has something to read.
  • You should dispose the disposable objects, always create them in Using blocks.

Now, applying that on the Load event block would produce:

As for the printing part:

Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    PrintDialog1.Document = PrintDocument1

    If PrintDialog1.ShowDialog = DialogResult.OK Then
        PrintDialog1.Document.Print()
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub PrintDocument1_BeginPrint(sender As Object, e As PrintEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument1.BeginPrint
    Button1.Visible = False
    Button2.Visible = False
End Sub

Private Sub PrintDocument1_PrintPage(sender As Object, e As PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument1.PrintPage
    Using bmp As New Bitmap(Width, Height)
        DrawToBitmap(bmp, New Rectangle(0, 0, Width, Height))
        e.Graphics.DrawImage(bmp, 0, 0)

        'You might want to try:
        'e.Graphics.DrawImage(bmp, ea.PageBounds.X, ea.PageBounds.Y, ea.PageBounds.Width, ea.PageBounds.Height)
        'e.Graphics.DrawImage(bmp, ea.MarginBounds.X, ea.MarginBounds.Y, ea.MarginBounds.Width, ea.MarginBounds.Height)
    End Using
End Sub

Private Sub PrintDocument1_EndPrint(sender As Object, e As PrintEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument1.EndPrint
    Button1.Visible = True
    Button2.Visible = True
End Sub

Accordingly, you can delete both the PrintPreviewDialog1 and PrintDocument1. And don't forget to delete the PrintDocument1_PrintPage handler.
