Hi,
  I'm trying  to open an lbl file programmatically, because i want to print it with zebra designer, but I have an error:
"The program has encontered an error and needs to close. Any changes to the document since last save may have been lost."

i use this vb6 code:
WinWnd = ShellExecute(WinWnd, "Open", "C:\SampleEti.lbl", vbNullString, vbNullString, SW_SHOWNORMAL)

if I open the file by Run Command, it's OK.
What's wrong ??
Thank you
Manuele Ratti

Hello Ratti,

You don't need open zebra Designer just to print your labels. Your label file is just a text file with ZPL language commands that will print your label in case you send it to your printer directly or (much better) via Link-OS Multiplatform SDK​ . You may find useful following discussions on a topic of printing from VB:
