Using Word VBA how do I print Back-to-front.

[JohnNSmith]

Using Word VBA, how do I get a document to print from Back to Front and
conversely, from front to back.

Do you mean that you want to print the pages in reverse order or that you
want to print double sided. Note that printing from front to back is the
default method and can be achieved by using the command

ActiveDocument.PrintOut

The following code should print the pages in reverse order:

Dim i As Long
Dim prtstr As String
With ActiveDocument
ptrstr = Format(.BuiltInDocumentProperties(wdPropertyPages))
For i = .BuiltInDocumentProperties(wdPropertyPages) - 1 To 1 Step -1
ptrstr = ptrstr & ", " & i
Next i
.PrintOut Pages:=ptrstr
End With
