printing processed orders automatically

Hi,
I have a web app that users enter orders, then another department approve
the orders. I want to be able to have the processed orders be printed
automatically. How should I go about doing this? Do I have to create a
windows service that checks for processed orders and than print? Or can I
have a trigger that's executed in SQL server and send the print to a printer?

Thanks

you are on the right track. you can use a window service, sqlagent or sql
reporting services.

I have an asp application that needs to print to a specific network printer. I am currently making it work by using the FSO and setting the path to the printer port, then writing out a string. The problem with that is that all the formatting I can do is with line feeds and tabs. Ideally, I'd like to pop open an html page on the client machine, print it, then close it. Is there any way to simulate calling window.print without pulling...

Maybe it will be a worthwhile discussion, but more importantly maybe it will find out the very best way to sort this kind of problem out so that...

Using WinXP & AccessXP, I'd like to automatically have the records that I've just printed in a report automatically updated to have the 'print date & time' immediately inserted into a 'Date/Time' field in the table of all of the 'just printed' records. The crude way would be to run an Update Query immediately before or immediately after printing on those records in the report, but how would I have this done automatically when hitting the...

Hello, I have 7 different crystal reports that need to be collated. Since I want to end up with a page of each (which all together make a single report), I created a blank main report and then added the 7 as subreports so they can print one after the other. I'm supposed to be printing them from a VB.Net 2003 application and I will be passing 2 parameters (start and end dates). These reports are huge (over 1000+ pages each). My original...
