How do I select the printer destination for a ShellExecute command eg ShellExecute("temp.rtf","print") always prints to the default printer. I want to be able to direct the output to a printer of my choosing.

Hi Dave

the only way to do that is to:
- first get what is the current default printer
- then change the default printer to the one you want to print on
- then print
- then change BACK the default printer to what it was before

Best regards

Thanks Fabrice

How do I set the default printer programmatically in WinDev. I have spent hours searching the documentation for this - all to no avail. Can you help?

Hi Dave

read the help for iConfigure... There is a syntax for that.

Best regards
