Hi there,
I'm trying to print an ms word file using vb. Before it will go to printer, I want the document file to be viewable but not editable. Can anyone help me.
Thanks,
Note: I was able to view the doc file but it is editable. I am using ms word 8.0 object library.

Hi,
This is a simple sample:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim objWord As Word.Application
Set objWord = New Word.Application
objWord.Visible = True
objWord.Documents.Open "z:\test2.doc", , True, False
objWord.PrintPreview = True
objWord.WindowState = wdWindowStateMaximize
objWord.ShowMe
End Sub
I Certainly appreciate the update. Now I have this in my bag of tricks of the future :)
