How do I run the 'Add Printer' wizard from an Xailer application ??
I have found the attached VB snippet that says it does this but I cannot
convert it.
Any thought would be appreciated.

Have you tried ShellExecute()? Something like:
ShellExecute( 0, "rundll32 shell32.dll...

Run 'Add Printer' wizard ... how to ??
Jose,
Thanks for the reply ...
I have tried this on your suggestion :
ShellExecute( 0, "rundll32 shell32.dll, SHHelpShortcuts_RunDLL AddPrinter" )
&
ShellExecute( 0, "rundll32 shell32.dll, SHHelpShortcuts_RunDLL AddPrinter",
1 ) ... the VB #define is something to do with focus.
Nothing appears to happen & nothing new seems to be in taskmanager - XPPro
sp2.
Apologies but this lower level windows stuff is new to me.
Regards
Chris
