Print multiple files

[mgheorghe]

Hi,
Does anyone know how to print a file without open it.
For example I have 10 files of pcl format. Once I press a button all the files go to the printer(without opening them).Any hint will be helpful. Thank you.

without opening them?

You mean with the
Open FileName For Output As #FreeFile

or opening (shelling) the files?

What I mean is to be able to print them whitout opening the program that read them. For example to print a *.doc I have to open Word and then print the file.
My program is receiving info from measurement equipment.I save this in 16 files. Then I have to create a command button that once press will print all this 16 files to the printer.
In DOS the command will be:
copy C:\Mike.pcl prn
copy C:\Mike1.pcl prn
Copy C:\Mike2.pcl prn etc

Is a way that I can do this in Visual Basic.(maybe API)

Thank You
