Printing Letterheads

[Alankar Trivedi]

Hi,

I have to write some word macros in VBA, i am a beginner in VBA but not in
word.

Anyhow I know the letter headed paper is in tray 2 and i know this is upper
tray but when i ask the printer to print to wdPrinterUpperBin - it still
comes out on plain paper instead of letter headed paper.

any ideas?

Hi Alankar,

Unfortunately, you have managed very early in your VBA coding to hit on an
area which Word (and Windows) handles badly. Take a look at this article for
more details
