"Background Printing"
-
Hello, I would like to do what I call background printing. What this means is the user clicks a print button or a link to print a document without acutally having the document visible. I have searched the site for this and haven't found a posting covering this. The only way I could think to make this happen would be to load the document in a hidden control and print from there. This seems kind of clunky and I was wondering if there was a more elegant approach. Thanks in advance, Eric
