如何使用 ExecWB 命令将页面打印为 pdf

Question

I am trying the below code used to print a webpage as pdf

 IE.ExecWB 6, 2, "U:\Translations", Null

I am not sure how to specify the path name in the above syntax. The parameters as as follows:

object.ExecWB nCmdID, nCmdExecOpt, [pvaIn], [pvaOut]

Answer 1

browser.ExecWB method does not have any parameter to pass the file path .

object.ExecWB nCmdID, nCmdExecOpt, [pvaIn], [pvaOut]

The ExecWB method requires an OLE Command ID to be passed in to identify the command to execute. This value nCmdID is of type Long. The nCmdExecOpt parameter represents the value for the command execution option. Together, these values instruct the control as to what supported command to execute and what degree of user prompting should occur.

The last two parameters pvaIn and paOut are optional and is usually set to either NULL or an empty string.

IE.ExecWB method can be used to print the web page as PDF but it will prompt the user to select the folder and ask the file name to save it.

This method does not have any parameter to pass the file path. So if you are looking for using the path written in your code than you need to change your logic and modify your code based on that.
