Outputting Reports

Is it possible to output a report to a program that creates Read-only documents, such as CutePDF Writer.?

RE: Outputting Reports

Hi James

Thank you for your question regarding Access Reporting.
A very simple way of doing this is using a 3rd party PDF printer driver, that allows to PRINT to a PDF file.

There are several free versions, and I personally use something called PDF995. If you search on google for that, it normalls requires you to install two files, and then you can use it.

Access iteslf does not have a PDF printer available in the program. Once you install the PDF printer, you can use it for all windows programs

RE: Outputting Reports. PDF creation.

Richard.

I am aware that Access doesn't have its own PDF printer, I just didn't know if the report needed to be saved as a separate file first.

Thanks for your help

James
