Multiple Printers

[DS]

Does anyone know about or how to set up multiple printers. I have an
order form that has different items on it. The thing is I want
different items on that order form to go to different printers when a
command button is pressed. Thanks.

PrtDevMode is probably overkill for this app. So I'd look at the following link
from the above page first.

You can change the default printer using updates to the INI file and some sample
code. See DefaultPRT.ZIP at http://www.mcwtech.com/downloads.htm. This MDB has a
combo box where you select the printer.

Hmm, I should suggest Arvin rewords that article and move that link to the top.

Thank You,
But will this work whe I have multiple items on an order form and each
item going to a different printer. I'm not assigning printers by
report, but rather by an item on a report.

You will have to have separate reports for separate items. You can't put the same
report to two different printers.
