Visual Basic and Windows Print Manager

[Negative9]

Hi I haven't done much VB programming and I was just wondering if it would be possible to retrieve a list of jobs queued in Print Manager from my vb program? For instance if I wanted to check to see if a certain file was in the queue and then take some sort of action if it was?

You'll need to use the Windows API "EnumJobs" to get that information. Go to http://www.codehound.com/vb and search for EnumJobs. You'll find lots of examples. Or send me your email address and I'll email you a complete VB project that has practically all print spool management functions you might need.

See http://www.merrioncomputing.com/Prog...g/PrintJob.htm for an anootated example of EnumPrintJobs and GetJob that does all this.
