    Question Populate Dropdown Control With Printer List

    I have a Userform which I allow the user to more easily select many printer parameters.

    On this same Userform, I would like to have a dropdown control to list available LAN printers. This list is unique for each user, depending on where they work and what printers they have elected to install.

    Are there any good examples of how to detect what printers are available for the user and populate a dropdown to display and allow selection?

    I realize this may include an API call, but do not know how to incorporate it.

    Thank you.

    I understand how to display the built-in dialog, but wanted to keep from displaying 2 dialogs for the user to get something to print. Just want to populate a dropdown with available printers that the user has.

    Thank you.
