Property Value

Type: System.String

A String to display while printing the document. The default is "document".

Remarks

The DocumentName property does not specify the file to print. Rather, you specify the output to print by calling Print method.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the DocumentName property to display the document name while printing. This example requires that you have a PrintForm component named PrintForm1 on a form.

' Print to a printer. 
PrintForm1.PrintAction = Printing.PrintAction.PrintToPrinter
' Assign a document name.
PrintForm1.DocumentName = "Quarterly Results Graph"
' Send to the printer.
PrintForm1.Print()
