Hi Patrick, thanks for the response! I'll have to look into getting a copy of the book :)

Unfortunately, my requirements dictate that I must use Infopath 2007. It's probably over my head, but I'll try to investigate the IP 07 Object model and see if I can get it to work using this as a start. I'll post my results here if I have any luck.

thanks!

Hi Zekebark and welcome to our forum!

Here's an excerpt from Chapter 2 of my book. Note: this does not use the InfoPath 2007 object model.

Imports System
Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop.InfoPath.SemiTrust
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic

' Office integration attribute. Identifies the startup class for the form. Do not
' modify.
<Assembly: System.ComponentModel.DescriptionAttribute("InfoPathStartupClass, Version=1.0, Class=Hello_World.Hello_World ")>

Namespace Hello_World

    ' The namespace prefixes defined in this attribute must remain synchronized with
    ' those in the form definition file (.xsf).
    <InfoPathNamespace("xmlns:my='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2004-02-07T05-55-01'")> _
    Public Class Hello_World

Private thisXDocument As XDocument
Private thisApplication As Application

        Public Sub _Startup (app As Application, doc As XDocument)
            thisXDocument = doc
            thisApplication = app

' You can add additional initialization code here.
End Sub

Public Sub _Shutdown ()
End Sub

End Class

End Namespace

How to create a print button in C# or VB?

Hi, first time poster, new to Infopath.

I'm not really a programmer but I understand that it will take managed code (C# or VB) if I'd like to create a print button on a fully trusted browser based form. I decided to take a crack at this with VB (since I was able to achieve this with VBScript) using the code below:

Public Sub CTRL110_5_Clicked(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ClickedEventArgs)
thisXDocument.PrintOut()
End Sub

this results in an error stating that "thisXDocument" is not declared. Any C# or VB solution for this would make my week!
