Hi All,
Doing a Job for local Charity and have run into a Road Block
I'm trying to automate printing and not saving excel after exporting grid to excel via luacom plugin
I've searched my old archives , the forum and Google but cannot find any method

I have tried running various VBS codes but to NO avail , the only Luacom code found was print(oExcel.ActiveSheet)
but that did not work
At the moment the prog minimizes , opens Excel from where yuo can print the Shheet , then either Save / Do Not Save when closing Excel
I am trying to get this done Automatically with no user intervention
Any Help will be appreciated
