Printing to pdf

Merry x-mas and happy new year everybody!

I need to print (create) a pdf file. It must be automatic. When I do it, it shows the 'configuration window' and the 'save as' window.

I must skip those two windows, since I need it to be absolutely automatic. I need to print a pdf per business unit, and they are more than hundred.

Everything is ready in a loop, but it´s stopping twice every time and I can´t afford that.

Does anybody know how to control or fix those properties within the macro?

'''''''''''CREA DOCUMENTOS CON EL INFORME DE CADA FRANQUICIA

'''''''''''CREATES A DOCUMENT FOR EVERY BUSSINES UNIT

sub ImprimirPDF

"Franquicia_id Origen"). Select ""

set Valores=ActiveDocument.Fields("Franquicia_id Origen")

msgbox("The field has "& Valores.GetCardinal &" values") 'SHOWS THE NUMBER

for i=0 to Valores.GetCardinal-97 I´M TRYNG WITH 3 ONLY, TO SAVE TIME

"Franquicia_id Origen"). Select right("000" & (i+1),3)

set val7=ActiveDocument.Fields("Franquicia Origen").GetPossibleValues

msgbox("" & val7.Item(j).Text)

set WSHShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

"c:\temp\qlik.pdf"

"HKCU\Software\QlikViewPDF\OutputFile", pdfPath, "REG_SZ"

"HKCU\Software\QlikViewPDF\BypassSaveAs", "1", "REG_SZ"

"RP01", "QlikViewPDF", true 'REPORT TO PRINT

set WSHShell = nothing ' 'En Windows 7 no guarda automaticamente

"Franquicia_id Origen"). Select ""

end sub

By the way, first you need to install pdf exchange, available at QV site.

Thanks in advance.
