How to set Report options from VB script

I'm working in PC-DMIS 2011 MR1 and trying to get a VB script that will set the report options as we want then dump the report to a PDF. I've gotten the printing to a PDF working but am unable to locate the switches to set in VB. Any clues as to where to look? (was easy in 3.7!)

  • So I have to rename all my File names.
    So I Save As File name: New name.
    No problem.

    Now for saving the report as a .pdf.

    So I want to save the New name.pdf.

    So I

    Click File.

    Click Printing.

    Click Report window print setup.

    So I select Prompt.

    The Save As window pops up.
    The File name: populates automatically with Old name.pdf.

    Is there a way to correct this?
    Is there a way to automatically pre-populate the File name: with the New name?

    Is there a way to automatically change the path to the network drive?
    Maybe some visual basic?

    Instead of manually selecting the network drive?

    Thanks in advance.
