I have read, researched, fiddled with, etc, for hours now. And while I assume this is simple, I cannot figure it out. I will add that I am not a designer/programmer, but a Domino Admin.
You mention that your code is running in an Agent. Note the following restrictions for NotesUIWorkspace…
“You cannot use the UI classes in a background agent, an agent called trough an API, or an agent called by the NotesAgent Run method. Only workstation users can run scripts that access UI objects.”

Thank you for your response.If I understand correctly what you posted…this agent will be manually run by a user at a workstation. Not on a schedule or on the server.
Is there not a way to print the selected email in the agent?

We can help you better if, when there’s an error, you say what the error is and what line it occurs on. See Debugging Domino Applications part 1 and part 2 for some tips on locating the problem yourself.
You say you want to print the “selected” email. If you mean this in terms of selection in a view, then there is no current NotesUIDocument in that situation, so I guess the error you’re getting is “Object variable not set”. A NotesUIDocument represents the document you’re editing on screen. For printing from a view, see NotesUIView.Print method. If you’re not doing anything that requires LotusScript, you might also look at the @Commands for printing.

I am sorry, I thought I posted the error…Yes, it is Object variable Not Set. I have used the Debug application as best as I can figure it out and does appear to be failing on the Call uidocThis.Print(1) line.
What we want to do it multi select several emails from the inbox of a mail file, and run an agent that will print the email and the attachment of each selected email.

You can print the emails from a view with NotesUIView.Print, as I said.
It’s probably going to be a challenge to print the emails and the attachments in proper order (as opposed to all the emails and then all the attachments). But you could do it if you don’t mind a little flashing while you run the agent – it would have to first get the list of selected documents, but after that it could deselect them all, then reposition to each one using SelectDocument, print that one, and then print the attachments. Of course, there’s no “print attachment” function in Notes because printing an attachment in a proprietary format (MS Word, for instance) requires you to run an application that understands that format. But you could detach the files and then use OS functions to try to print them.

I tried using the NotesUIView.Print and IT WORKS!!!Thank you SO very much. Not being a designer, this took several days to work on and figure out. I certainly learned something this time.

I realise this is an old topic, but I also have been struggling with printing memos and THEN the attachments. Would it be possible to share the solution? I’m half-way there using Printing Utilities Library, just need the fix to print the memo before printing the attachments.
