Hi,

My aim is to close the odt file after printing in my vb6 application. During debugging breakpoint at CallByName function then step into Close function everything works properly. But if there isn't any break point the code will run into a run time error '1001': com.sun.util.closevetoexception: controller disagree.

Therefore i believe implementing the eventlistener will work rather than sleep(..)

CallByName oDoc, "print", VbMethod, arg()
oDoc.Close (True)

Can any kind soul pls guide me in implementing the event listener so to close the odt file after printing. Saw some posting on event listener but cant fiigure out how to implement it. pls help Thanks=P

It is possible to create listeners with VB6.
You can find a sample in http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/ProUNO/Bridge/Automation_Objects_with_UNO_Interfaces

Basically, what you need is to create a COM object that maps the listener(s) methods (don't forget the "disposing") and register it with OOo in the usual way. Just create an ActiveX DLL with a class module for every listener you need.
