Does anyone know how to make Windows 98 print to a file -- the same file
each time without it prompting you to enter a file name each time? I'm
hoping there is a registry entry that stores the file name for the printer
driver.

Telling the printer driver to print to the FILE: port will cause Windows to
prompt the user for the file name each time the user prints. We would simply
like to fix the file name and not give the user a choice. This will enable
us to run a program to watch for the file to appear and then do something
with the file.
