Printing multiple copies of a report

[MacWT]

Opening a report from a Form, I can Print it immediatly and I can open it in Preview or in Design mode. I would like to print it, but not before showing me the Print Dialog Box, so I can change the number of copies to any number I want. How do I do this?

Or do you have another method that lets me print any given number of copies of a report?

Click on File in the menu, then click on Print. This should bring up the dialog box...

Thanks for the reply. I was looking for a way to do this in one click. I don't want to confuse my collegues who have to work with this.

Add this line after the code that opens the report in preview mode:

DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPrint

print multiple problem

I added Neals code, but the dialog box opens on top of the print preview of the report, and if you hit close for the print dialog box, you can see the preview but get an error referring to closing the dialog box. This code is
stDocName = "rptMeetingAttendance"
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acPreview
DoCmd.Maximize
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPrint
Would like the print preview to show, THEN the dialog box. Any suggestions?
