Are you asking if it is possible to use a macro to open a document and then print it?

Can this be extended to Writer document, eliminating the requirement of opening Writer and selecting 'Print'?

Hi Peter

just another proposal:

sub printreport()

Dim oDoc as Object
Dim arg(0) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue

oDoc=ThisComponent
arg(0).name = "Name"
arg(0).value = "<" & "myprinter" & " >"
oDoc.printPages(arg())
end sub

Yours

Hi Peter,

A macro similar to this should do what you want -

Sub PrintReport()
ThisDatabaseDocument.ReportDocuments.getbyname("<name of your
report>").open()
End Sub

Then edit your Menu form, double click on the Print button and under
Events

| 'Mouse button pressed', link the button to the PrintReport() sub. Then

when you run your application, clicking on the button should fire your
report.

I have a report run from a push button on a menu form. I can print it
from the screen, but in Access I was able to program a push button to
print id directly.  Is this possible in BASE? I cannot find any
reference to this.

Thanks for the suggestion. However all the subroutine does is display
the report on the screen. I want to be able to send it to the printer
without first displaying it on the screen. So far I cannot see any
reference on how to doi this.
