Thanks for the response, I got the following to work on windows. win32api.ShellExecute ( 0, 'print', filename, None, ".", 0 ) However it prints the name of the file at the top and adds a page number on the bottom. Is there some way of eliminating the filename and page number. jim-on-linux -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
