Re: PrintOut() Question

In the object model i found no method comparable with "PrintOut()".

Is there another useable solution for realising a "print"-button in 2007 by now ?

Yes that could be the reason why nothing you try works :) . I haven't worked with 2007 a lot myself but what usually helps is to just check the object model and you should find the method you need to do your printing. just keep in mind as mentioned before already your form needs to be in full trust mode.

my first guess would have been that you are using 2007 where thisXDocument doesn´t exist but xPathNavigator

I hadn't realized this mattered. Yes, actually I am using Infopath 2007. Is that why nothing I try works? It is possible that some one could tell me how to do it in 2007 or point me at a good reference?

Do you have this installed? http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=7e9ebc57-e115-4cac-9986-a712e22879bb&displaylang=en

By default when you create a vs solution it creates Private thisXDocument As XDocument by default. If you have it installed try adding it manually. Hope that helps..

Cheers!

Imports Microsoft.Office.InfoPath
Imports System
Imports System.Xml
Imports System.Xml.XPath

Those are the name spaces I am importing. It cannot find thisXDocument in any of them, nor have my guesses at what it is been fruitful. I'm sorry to be asking such uninformed questions, but I am frustrated because printing should be one of the easiest things to do I would think. As for the trust level, I had read earlier that I needed to do that, so that isn't the issue.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

First and foremost your form must be fully trusted for printing to work. thisXDocument.PrintOut() is what works so I'm not sure why it's not being recognized. I would check to make sure you're importing the right namespaces. Comment out your submit and see if that works.

Hi. I am extremely new to Infopath, so this question probably sounds pretty uninformed, but I have looked around and have not been able to get anything to work.

What I am trying to do is to have a button that, when pressed, submits the form then prints it out. I wrote a web service that accepts the form data, and processed it before my customers added this new requirement on. I am doing the programming in VB and this is a Web Enabled Form.

My Code:

Public Sub CTRL84_5_Clicked(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ClickedEventArgs)
Me.Submit()
Sender.PrintOut()
End Sub

Neither of these lines of code work however, and I'm not sure what I should be doing. I see every where people using thisXDocument.PrintOut(), but when I try that it does not recognize thisXDocument.

Thank you in advance
