How to print the current document contents using the other form?

Hi,

My Question is when I open a current document, I need to print the contents using different form which is diffent format not the form which I open the document, I tried to put a print button on the form which open the document, the button call a agent include @command([filePrint];“”;“”;“”;“”;the other form name), the error message told me it is not available.

Would you please tell me how to solve it?

Thanks in advance

So you are opening the document by clicking on a view?

Hi Linda -

Designer Help says:

@Command([FilePrint])

Prints the currently open or selected document(s), or the current view.

Syntax

@Command( [FilePrint] )

or

@Command( [FilePrint] ; numCopies; fromPage; toPage; ifDraft; ifView; formName; breakType; ifReset; startDate; endDate)

So your command should have an extra set of ;“”;, since currently it has the other form name in the place where it should have ifView.

I use the following in a view action button to print the selected document(s) with a different form. Should work with the currently opened document as well in an action button:

@Command([FilePrint] ; “” ; “” ; “” ; “” ; “” ; “Printform”; “pagebreak” ; “resetpages”)

Hope this helps…

Thank you all of you.

@Command( [SwitchForm] ; formName ) works very well.

Once again thanks!
