Command to Printer

[Jim Scheuer]

Is there a way to send a command to a printer to switch
paper trays from Access?

Jim:

there's no way to do this before printing a report, independently of a
report or during a report because Access reports contain the target tray
internally as part of the prtDevMode property. That said if you stop by our
web, and look in the code and design tips area under reports, you'll find
code to modify a reports tray assignment, after which you can send it to
print.

Steve....thank you. I'll take a look.

Andy....thank you very much for your information. I
thought we were golden but we need to change trays after
the printing is started and the way we are reading the
information , this can't be done. I do thank you again for
your reply.
