Well - those were my thoughts exactly - as I already mentioned earlier in the thread - since I've also done Office Automation - and know of its downsides. I just wasn't sure of the command - the ShellExecute - to do the alternate printing technique. So - yeah - Ted & Frank - thank you both for your follow-ups. I hope that it will help Jack get it done right!

I suspect you can just call ShellExecute with the "print" verb. See the examples built into the Solution Explorer.
