Hi brothers ;)

After a couple of weeks non-perl-work :(
I now try to get some experience with the Windows-perl world.
But I have a litte question and can't find anything in the documentation.

Ok, the problem is, that I want to use OLE to 'convert' a Word-file into postscript, make a accounting of the pages, upload it to Unix, and do there some magic work with the file, before uploading it to the MVS-world to print it out :)

The unix - perl part is still available and good working :)
But what I need is a chance to print the .doc file via OLE (that's easy). But I defined the printer to print to a file! So during each printing there raises a window, which ask me for the filename.
I like to put that into the automatism, so that the user don't need to interact during the printing.
So the question is, how can I comunicate from within perl to the print-to-with-filename window ?
Maybe someone solved this problem already or can give me a hint for the correct magic-word to search for in the documentaion :)

Thanks
