I posted this a few weeks back but with no luck. Does anyone have any
ideas?



I am creating a form for distribution that has certain required
fields. This form will not be return electonically so the user must
print the completed version. I have enable validation on the "Print"
button which will prompt the user to insert the required data before
it will proceed to the print. However, the user can bypass the
validation process by selecting Print from the File menu or CTRL-P.
Is
there any way to disable printing from the file menu so that the only
way one can print the form is from the "Print" button on the form? If
this is not possible, is there any way to add a validation script to
run when a users selects Print from the File menu? Thanks so much for
help!

FYI - This is the script I am using to validate the form from the
"Print" button:


var txt = form1.execValidate();
if (txt == true){
xfa.host.print(1, "0", (xfa.host.numPages -1).toString(), 0, 1, 0, 0,
0);

Please search the forum. This was addressed a few months back...
