Default Need a button to print 5 copies

Would you believe

DoCmd.PrintOut acSelection, copies:=5

Note the colon in front of the equal sign. That eliminates the necessity of
putting place holders for the various preceding parameters for which you
aren't providing values.

I need to put a button on my form that, when clicked, will print out 5
copies of the current form. I know that it's not wise to print forms, but
there's not much way around this. I currently have a button that prints out
a single copy of the form. Here's the code behind the button:

DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 8, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.PrintOut acSelection

I just need an additional button that will print out 5 copies instead of
1, if possible.
Thanks,
Darrell
