Newbie you say? Good luck with this one. It's a very advanced topic you're talking about and documentation and examples are very sparse on this topic. Replacing the Print dialog is just something that nobody does.

You're not getting control of a Print button. You're replacing the standard Windows Print dialog with your own.

PrintHookProc function[^]
