Hi, using Access version 97. Which means APIs...

I want to be able to allow users to select from a list of available printers:

1. a specific printer.
2. print tray for first page and print tray for second (and subsequent) pages.
3. select paper size.

Any example code really appreciated :-)

Regards

Hi Allen,
I know I'm probably pushing my luck here.
However, the article has been archived and the sample MDB subsequently
removed.
Do you know where I could get my hands on it?
Thanks in advance.

Apologees, I've managed to find a copy.
Thanks
