Setting a printer

Hi, I need to select a printer for reports when I start an Access 2000
application without changing Windows Default printer and print dialog box.
Actually, it's not a problem to select the printer. The problem is that in
contrast to later versions, Access 2000 has no application property
Application.Printer to set for the later default use. Is there any way to do
it?

I've a question: what's happening when someone selects a printer in the
print dialog box? Is it possible to do the some in code without opening
print dialog box just to pass the printer name as a parameter or to set an
environmental variable before prining a report?

Thanks in advance,
AK

Not sure about 2000 but in 2003 you open the report, select a printer (FILE -
PAGE SETUP - USE SPECIFIC PRINTER).
