Choosing printer from within a script

[Lynch, Jonathan]

Well, actually, I would also need to select the current printer. Do you
think that might set off antivirus software?

I am pretty sure I could get a list of printers just by getting the
files in the printer folder - but choosing a current printer, so that
the subsequent print command prints on that printer, is a different
matter.

I really wish that was an inherent part of transcript.

All of 'em... (actually I think you need to have at least Internet
Explorer
4.x or later in Windows 95). However different versions of the OS will
support different sets of functionality depending on what you're asking
for.
Keep in mind that certain VBS actions may trigger anti-virus detectors
(generally anything that manipulates files like the FileSystem object).
But
if you're just "getting" info, you should be safe.
