printing

[ken]

Hi,
I automated printing of my report...so I am able to print n-number of
versions of it. If I send it to the printer everything is
fine...however if I send it to a free pdf printer I will get n windows
asking me for the save as file name. I was wondering if through access
there was anyway to automate that, anotherwords so that access itself
would populate the file name field and then click ok to that it prints?
Thanks

This has been asked here a few times before.

See

for a method using ghostview and gsprint which apparently lets you set the filename in code.

I haven't actually used this method - I use CutePDF - but that seem to require manual file name
entry. I have used Ghostscript though, it is quite a big package to install
