Printing dialogue pre-settings

[George Perchette]

Hi

I am trying to show the printing dialogue with
the Option "Printing" automatically set on
"Document (Content)" without any action
by the user, and not - if there are comments
in the document - that the option is automatically
set on "With Comments" ...

I try it with

With Dialog(wdDialogFilePrint)
.Item = wdPrintDocumentContent
.Show
End With

I do something similar with the SaveAs-dialogue
to automatically have a default saving name shown.
That works perfect. By the code shown above, the
code stops with error 438, "object ist not...".
wdPrintDocumentContent is then set on 0.
When I change it on 1, the dialogue ist shown without
error.

(Word 2000, but I need it later under Word XP)

Thanks for any help, George

Hi George,

You are using the wrong property name. Try this

With Dialog(wdDialogFilePrint)
.Type = 0
.Show
End With
