printing a html file progra

[Dave F.]

Hi
I'm using Office '03.

I've a couple of Q's regarding printing...

I've written a routine that copies the code from the vbe & converts it t
o html. I've then saved it to a file (test.htm).

1. What's the best way to print this file? I've found this routine
that loads it into an IE object:

Sub PrintHtml(fileName)
Dim objIE
Set objIE = wscript.CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application", "ie_")
objIE.Visible = True
objIE.Navigate fileName
Do Until objIE.readyState = 4: wscript.sleep 20: Loop
print_done = False
' 6 = PRINT, 2 = NO USER PROMPT
objIE.ExecWB 6, 2
' Wait until printing id done.
Do While Not print_done: wscript.sleep 50: Loop
objIE.Quit
End Sub

I've never used ExecWB before. Is this the best way?

Is there a way to print the output of the file (not the source code)
without saving it to disk?

2. When printing is there a way to programmatically set the printer
driver properties. Specifically the option to print 2 pages on 1 sheet.
I'm guessing the drivers are manufacturer specific & have no idea how to
do this.

Your help would be much appreciated.

Cheers
Dave F.

I think you might get additional advice asking in the VS2005 groups and
places like http://www.codeproject.com/ in case someone has already tried
the same idea. Even if they used a different "Language" you may get some
good clues.

Sorry not to be more directly helpful but I think you may be right about
some drivers being specific.
