Hello,
I'm attempting to have a Word document print out duplexed (double-sided) but
I'm not having much luck. I have a function that creates a reference to a
file using GetObject(fileName) command then uses the .PrintOut command to
print the document, but the command does not offer duplexing.

Does does anyone have any tips on how to duplex print a Word doc from Access?

Thanks in advance.
 
This is (at least) theoretically possible. Only certain
capabilities/options of printer drivers are generally accessible from
the calling program, but duplexing is one of these (from Access 2002
you can duplex Access Reports from VBA). You would probably be best
off, however, asking this question in a Word VBA group, since you are
likely to have to use some special features of Word objects to do it.
