print access form to specific printer

[KGComputers]

I think there is a command in vb 6.0 to let the user choose the correct printer
when a command button for print is clicked. The command can also be applied to access vba..

Have you tried doing research on the parameters of OpenReport?

Hi, thanks for that suggestion, as i said i know a little vbscript but this is way beyond me but it makes sense to check out the parameters of OpenReport, i'll try that and see what i can find on that.

I just don't understand how this line opens and prints the doc..

DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acNormal

hi,

so, you are using vbscript for your asp applications..well, that's similar to vba except for some syntax for the web...

stdocname stands for the report document name while acnormal denotes printing directly to printer...acpreview for previewing first before printing...

Hi, thanks for the explanation, but i couldn't find any examples of parameters that would select a printer to print to. i am unable to test the application because it is linked with sage on the network, i would have to go to the company and test it there - so trial and error isn't an option...
would something like this work?

Application.Printer = Application.Printers("my specific printer")
