This is a bunch of tasks that can't be performed in a single step ;-)<br />
Do you mean to 'fully' control Word (emulating user interaction etc.) or is it enough just to print a document (to a special printer)?<br />

Yes, Emulating user interaction...I want the software to open word, print to a the Acrobat PDFWriter printer, change the printer back to what it was and close the software.<br />
<br />
I want to do that with the whole office suite...is it possible. Even not in one step?<br />

Emulating user interaction is hard. But maybe the OLE automation interface of the office applications might come inhady (though i never used it...)<br />

Is it possible to control Word 97 ( file open, print, etc...) and to set the default printer to a different one then it is right now with Visual C++ 5??<br />
<br />
I'm using NT4 if that changes anything...<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Controling Printer and Word 97

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
