What would be the equivalent in vb.net for the following Shell Execute
written in C?

ShellExecute(NULL, "print", "c:\\filename.doc", NULL, "", SW_HIDE);



Thanks,

Richard

Hi there,

This is a VB.NET newsgroup, you might want to try a C newsgroup.

Untested:

\\\
Dim p As New System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo()
p.Verb = "print"
p.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
p.FileName = "C:\filename.doc"
p.UseShellExecute = True
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(p)
///

I tried this code and got the error:

system.runtime.InteropServices.ComException
