How to print word document from command line / batch file

[Lucy]

Hi,

I tried the following command to print a document, but it
dit not work:

winword /p MyDocument.doc \\myserver\printer1

Does anyone know how to print documents from the command
line and/or batch files without the need to
open/print/close the document?

Thanks in advance,
Lucy

Hi Lucy,

You can't print a Word document without it being opened in Word.

Please respond to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be
interested.

Hope this helps
