Please help!

Is there way to print multiple word files with one click of the button on html page?

Or at least, if that's not possible, is there way to print multiple HTML files with one click of the button?

thank you,
sam

I'm sorry.
You want the user to be able to print the page by clicking a button? <input type='button' value='Print' onClick='javascript:Print();'>

No, I want to print with one click MULTIPLE EXTERNAL files, which are not currently opened. Idealy they should be external MSWord files.

Wouldn't the files that you want printed have to be present some where? If they are, how about you have an array with the document names (URL's) and loop through this array loading the document in a separate window. Using the window.onload, have the print function called. Part of the window.onload event would also have a function that counts seconds and have enough time for the document to be qued. Then the next file in the array... etc.

I'm no JavaScript expert; fairly new to it myself.
I thought that my blurb above might give you some ideas of your own. ;)

Good luck.
