Word object and its Enumerations

[Karthik]

I need to store various printer settings into the database (this would be
done by the user thru “Maintain Printers†screen).

1. In what format I’ve to store the printer information (paper source,
papersize …)?
2. Then how do I apply the stored values to word object. (It’ll accept
only its enumerations)?

 

[Jezebel]

Use the object browser to check the property names and data types. The data
types will tell you the format for storing the values in the database. You
set Word object properties the same as any other VB/VBA properties.
