This should be possible using the NativeInterface property of a portal. The nativeInterface property gives you the IWebBrowser2 interface for the portal, which in tern has an ExecWB() method. You can use this method to print the contents of the portal.
Here’s an example:
Sub Main(Client, GWEvent) dim iPortals dim iPortal1 dim iret Set iPortals = GroupWise.PortalManager.Portals Set iPortal1 = iPortals.Item("PORTAL1") If iPortal1 is Nothing Then Set iPortal1 = iPortals.Add iPortal1.Caption = "Advansys Home" iPortal1.TabCaption = "Advansys" iPortal1.ID = "PORTAL1" iPortal1.NavigationControlsEnabled = True iPortal1.URLInputEnabled = True iPortal1.Url = "www.advansyscorp.com" else MsgBox "Found it - try to print it" const IDM_PRINT = 6 call iPortal1.NativeInterface.ExecWB(IDM_PRINT, -1) End If End Sub
This is somewhat incomplete, because the printer selection dialog still appears. I understand it should be possible to turn this off by using flags. See the Microsoft Documentation on the IWebBrowser2.ExecWB() method, and the IDM_PRINT command. More information is available at http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/browser/mshtml/reference/constants/idm_print.asp.
I hope this helps.
