    Kind citizens of VB land!!

    I'm trying to put together a small .exe that when pushed through with SMS across the LAN it will automatically Add 3 optional TCP/IP printers to several workstations. The third printer in the list will act as thier default printer. Even if it's just the basic code for adding a network printer, that would help. Could someone please help?

    You can use con2prt (in the NT Resource kit)

    Shell "con2prt /cd \\servername\sharename"

    /c - connects to \\printserver\share printer.
    /cd - connects to \\printserver\share printer and sets it as the default printer.
