Pdf PrintOut and SendKeys

[Philippe]

Hi,

I'm desperately trying to automate clicking on the save button of PDFWriter
v5 dialog box.

Do you know how to use these sendKeys ?
I never did it, It seems damned simple, but I still can't get it to work !

This is one of the lines i've tried :
SendKeys "{ENTER}", False
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, ActivePrinter:="Acrobat
PDFWriter"

Thanks in advance for any comments.

PDFWriter v5 supports a registry setting for bypassing this dialog box. I
think the setting is HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat
PDFWriter\PDFFileName. Set this to the filename you require. Note that when
the 'printing' has finished this registry setting will be wiped, so you can
poll it until it disappears before you attempt to print another copy.
