Hi all,
I'm using Delphi 2009 and the MS Access Interop COM API. I'm trying to figure out two things, but one is more important than the other right now.
I need to know how to set the file name when sending the print job to the spooler. Right now it's defaulting to the Access DB's name, which can be something different than the file's name. I need to just ensure that when this is printed it enters the print spool using the same filename as the actual file itself - not the DB's name. My printer spool is actually a virtual print driver that converts documents to an image.
That's my main issue. The second issue is how to specify which printer to use. This is less important at the moment because I'm just using the default printer for now. It would be nice if I could specify the printer to use, though.
Does anyone know either of these two issues? Thank you in advance.
I'll go ahead and paste my code:
unit Converter.Handlers.Office.Access;
interface
uses
sysutils, variants,
Converter.Printer,
Office_TLB, Access_TLB, UDC_TLB;
procedure ToTiff(p_Printer: PrinterDriver; p_InputFile, p_OutputFile: String);
implementation
procedure ToTiff(p_Printer: PrinterDriver; p_InputFile, p_OutputFile: String);
var
AccessApp : AccessApplication;
begin
AccessApp := CoAccessApplication.Create;
AccessApp.Visible := False;
try
AccessApp.OpenCurrentDatabase(p_InputFile, True, '');
AccessApp.RunCommand(acCmdQuickPrint);
AccessApp.CloseCurrentDatabase;
finally
AccessApp.Quit(acQuitSaveNone);
end;
end;
end.
