Printing a text file

[Stainnd]

This is a simple problem with most likely a simple answer. I have a textfile. I'd like to print it. Thanks for the help.

dim filehandle as integer
dim strtemp as string

filehandle = freefile

open "c:\yourtext.txt" for input as filehandle

do untill eof(filehandle)
line input #filehandle, strtemp
printer.print strtemp
loop
printer.enddoc
close filehandle

I think this will work for you but there are other ways of doing this but i think this is probally the most general way of printing a text file. Another way you could do this is by changing the extension of the text file to rtf (rich text file) and open with

dim objectvar as object
set objectvar = getobject("mytext.rtf&quot

and use the microsoft word object which does have a print method.

Need any other help let me know. hope this helps
