need a silent print utility for word documents - on demand print

[Guest]

Need a utility that can open print and close automatically, and print a
specific word document to the current printer, all without user interface -
mouse clicks, etc.

For an in demand printing application where documents are stored as .DOC,
..RTF, .MHTML, .HTML etc.

for example, something like:
wordprint.exe document.doc

You could write a macro to print the active document then quit; then use the
command line to call Word and run the macro: winword.exe /mPrintMacro

You can also do it via DDE. To see what that involves, open Windows
Explorer, go to Tools > Folder Options, select Word Documents from the File
Types list, click Advanced, select Print from the command list, click Edit.
