Printing from Word

[joe]

I have a program that accesses a word template and outputs formatted text
to the template and prints using this syntax and it hangs when it prints.
Once you hit cntrl+alt+delete and open task manager, it stops hanging and
prints.Is there a better way? Thanks in advance, Joe

objWord.ActiveWindow.Document.PrintOut

Do While Objword.BackgroundPrintingStatus > 0
frmPrint.Label1.Caption = "Print Document " & i + 1
frmPrint.Refresh
Loop

Try putting a DoEvents just before the frmPrint.Refresh
