I am fed up with the problem of how to select a printer when trying to print a report. What i want to do is click a command button which prompts me for print dialog box from print preview of a report. I created a macro which when runs prompts me for the Print dialog box. But i don't find any way to place this macro on a Custom Tool bar or Custom Menu. The command FILE from commands bar don't give the printer options in print preview and so can't be placed on Custom Tool bar. Also I cannot give the Full Menu and other startup settings to users.
Any help or suggestions or any samples will be highly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards

I just came came across this problem. The solution is to select Toolbars->Customize. Then create or open a Custom Menu and then copy the "Print...CTL+P" command from the Full Menu bar to the Custom menu bar (drag and drop while holding down the CTL key). You are right. This is one the commands that is not listed anywhere in the Customize->Commands. Database utilities is another one. You can also run the macro by selecting "All Macros" from the Customize->Commands list and select the appropriate macro and drag it to where you want it.
