Is there a way to assign a default path and filename for the print job? &nbsp;This method could only work for me if it were automatic, with no human intervention needed.<br />

I've checked a few places and tinkered with the settings but I don't see any way to automate the destination. &nbsp;<br />
Sorry.<br />

Greetings,<br />
<br />
I'm wondering if there's a Windows printer option which will allw me to output the contents of the printout to a text file. &nbsp;I need to intercept the contents of the printout, for secondary processing, but have no access to the source code of the program generating the printout. &nbsp;I also do not have access to the database shema and don't want to take the risk of accessing the database.<br />
<br />
If you have an answer, I'd be most appreciative.<br />
<br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />

Need to intercept a print job and view contents

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
