printout method on embedded word doc fails - PART 2

L

lieven

I have a word doc embedded in an excel sheet. when i try to print the word
doc from vba i always get a runtime error 4506 : method not available on the
".printout statement".
I have even tried putting a print macro in the embedded word doc :
sub PrintMe()
activedocument.printout
end sub
very simple indeed, but when accessing(not running the macro) this embedded
doc from vba, i get the runtime error message 4506 : method not available

i have tried everything from early binding to late binding but to no avail.
it seems like the Word printout method is not accessible from excel

has anyone experienced this problem ? or have a solution ?


thanks
