hi,
i am trying to create a pdf file from a vb application. i dump the text which i want as a pdf file into a word document, set the active printer to Acrobat PDFWriter and use the Doc.Printout method of the word document. the problem is i am stuck with a filename dialog box (seems like the old windows 3.x common dialog box), which is expecting a file name and/or an enter keystroke. sendkeys doesnt work. is there any other way to print to a pdf file directly. i have acrobat 3.1 and vb 6.0 on my machine. If anyone knows the solution please help me out.
thanks and regards
Dev

The only program I know can convert a file into a pdf is CorelDraw 8.0 but I don't know if it can be controlled by VB!
