hello. im using ProcessStartInfo to print ms word files (coz this is the only
way i could print it). but it is being printed directly without even showing
the print dialog. is there a way to show the print dialog before i could
print the file? because at times, i need to change the printer settings
manually. i tried mixing

PrintDialog1.ShowDialog ()

with it but it's not working. after i change the printer settings to let's
say, grayscale, it would still print the file with color. please help me with
this. i really really need this for my project. tnx!

I would create a ms word object, it is a com obj, then you can open,
edit, save, print etc. i think the object is called mircosoft word
