Setting paper source in a macro

D

Deborah

I am unable to set paper source (eg. UpperBin, LowerBin, etc) in a macro to
control where a document prints. Help suggests using the command
PageSetup.FirstPageTray and PageSetup.OtherPagesTray followed by the
appropriate bin. I've set these up and they are just being ignored when the
macro runs. Can anyone help with how to define the paper source in a macro?
Thanks

Basically, "No". This mechanism is VERY flaky on the Mac.

But if you care to post back with the exact versions of Word, your Operating
system, and the manufacturer and model of your printer, we may be able to
help.
