Changing the default printer

[Mike Fellows]

Hi,

I have some code that prints out a word document

but i need to be able to send this document to a specific printer

so far i have imported system.drawing.printing

and have tried this

Dim prtdoc As New PrintDocument
prtdoc.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = "my printer"

but this doesnt actually change the printer and im now completely stuck

any help with this is much appreciated

Thanks
