MS Access Forum / Reports / Printing / January 2007need help trying to open a bound image for printing
Does anybody have any ideas on how to open a bound Autocad file from the form window and automatically go through the printing steps needed upon entering Autocad to print the 40+" image? I am trying to bind all this to a command button. I was told it needs to be "stupid proof". That is the reason for trying to bind everything to command button. you talk about bound autocad file and the 40+ images? Is it an autocad drawing (dxf, dwg,...) or is it an image (jpg, gif, png,...)? Basically, do you need to open autocad and automate autocad to do the printing or can you simply use another means to print the image?

My sticking point is automating that printing process. I can open CAD easy enough...but unsure how to tackle the following steps in code. Private Sub LargePrint_Cmd_Click() Shell "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\MDT 2007\acad.exe" End Sub >you talk about bound autocad file and the 40+ images?
