Auto Print Report

[Steven Phillips 63]

Hello,
I am attempting to print a report automatically, please advise if this makes
sense. I also attempted to "send object" but I had trouble because we use
Lotus notes.
I have a report based on a query which I wish to print. I would like to have
a means of tying it to a startup form, which will open by means of scheduling
an event through the computer scheduling sequence at 7AM. I would then close
the form based on a timer event. Is this the right way, possible, or what are
your reccomendations?
Thanks so much,
Steven

Hi,
you could either set up a procedure which calls the openreport method and
then call this procedure with a macro and call the macro with a scheduler, or
do it within a macro right away and just call the macro.
For the scheduling part check this article:

Sendobject is really just meant for MS outlook. You might have luck and get
it to work somewhat in later notes versions, but it is definitely not
suggested to be used in a professional environment. Instead try to use
specific notes code which can automate the email creation.
Some good starting points are the following:
