Does anyone know how to print say a Word Document or Web Page from a VB interface. In other words being able to control printing from a VB program. I'm trying to see if there is a way to pass another application (word, IE) as a parameter to the PrintDocument Control. Any help would be appreciated.

I'd use the ShellExecute API call.

If u would like to print a WordDocument, why not try:

oDocument = oWord.ActiveDocument
oDocument.PrintOut(Background:=False)

et voilá

For complete documentation from MSDN on how to do as Dozo suggests, check out http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dno2k3ta/html/odc_VBNETcallsVBA.asp

Or at msdn.microsoft.com/library navigate to :

Check out the Calling Visual Basic for Apps Code from VB .NET article. Everything you need is there...

HTH anyone else with similar problems.
