Access Reports to HTML?

[RickR]

I have a nice report I've managed to create, and I want to export it in HTML
format for inclusion on a web page. The HTML export capability is rather
weak, and the resulting text has none of the formatting - such as lines to
separate the entries - is preserved. What I'd really like is an HTML
table-format export - with demarcations between fields on the report, but
especially grid lines between report entries.

There are other issues with the existing HTML export, but I won't detail them.

Do any of you have suggestions for me - or can you point me to alternative
approaches.

PDF format perhaps?

Yes, thanks; I've done that, and that's a possible solution. My objective
is to have this report be a component within an HTML page.

What about Crystal Reports? Anybody have experience using it with Access
2007? Can it output nicely formatted HTML tables?

PDF995 can be used to convert pdf to html or you can use it to convert to
jpeg image. One of their products, omniform will do the conversion
dynamically whenever a pdf is placed in a folder. pdf 995 doesn't do a very
good job at unique file names - just consecutive numbers - if you need to
generate file names with specific names Lebans' PDFtoReport does a good job -
save the pdf's to a folder & let omniform do the conversion.
