Hi,

I need to print stuff on the default printer on the click of a button
without opening the print box opening up. Any pointers?

Piyush,
What do you mean by 'print box opening up'? If you are referring to the
small progress dialog you can make this go away by setting the
PrintController of the PrintDocument to an instance of
StandardPrintController.

I did try that out and it works alright... Although I am now using an
ActiveX component for acrobat reader (as the files i need to print are only
pdf files)
