Hello,
I have about two hundred individual RTF files to print from an
XP host. Word 2000 doesn't seem to have this feature, so I'm looking
for a way to print those RTF files from an ActivePython script. Would
someone have some working code handy?
Thank you. 3 1819 no****@nospam.c om wrote:

Sure it does, just not the way you think.
- Click on Start-Settings-Printer and Faxes
- Double-click the printer you want to print to
- Open folder where your 200 RTF files are stored.
- Drag and drop the file on to the printer window and your machine
will launch and print each of thes in Word.

The code below will print one file from your current directory to the
default printer. You should be able to tweak it to your needs.
import sys
import os
from win32com.client import Dispatch
MYDIR = os.getcwd() + '/'
myWord = Dispatch('Word. Application')
myWord.Visible = 1 # comment out for production
myDoc = myWord.Document s.Open(MYDIR + sys.argv[1])
myDoc.PrintOut( )
myDoc.Close()

Thanks guys, that did it. I had to print in smaller batches because
200 in one shot caused Word to crash, but I got the job done. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Can anyone tell me how to run a bunch of commands in the same command
line window? When I do this:
system("command1")
system("command2")
....
it opens a new window for every system call. The alternative I can
think of is to write out the command to a batch file and run that, but
I'm wondering if there is a better way to do it.

Hi,
I am trying to call an application from php. I have tried exec() and

Can an application be called if it brings up a window? The app I am
calling has a command line interface, but it insists on bringing up
it's standard window also.
