Convert to HTML

A

Is it possible to convert an Access report to an HTML file?

For example:

If I have a report that lists client information from a tablle/query (I
realize I will lose programmatic functioning when convertet to html), and I
click some kind of convert button, will Access generate a html file that
converted the record listing into an html table?

In Access 2003 (and I believe, the same in multiple previous versions), with
the Report open in Preview, on the Menu, File | Export, and in the file
dialog, choose HTML as the type.

You may use the DoCmd.OutputTo method.

The better way is to design a HTML template file and render the data
into it.

The best way is to export it as XML and use an appropriate stylesheet
for the XSLT processor.

Hi Stefan,

You provided alternative methods to the docmd.outputto. Can you direct me
where I can get how-to information to generate the html template and render
data into it?

Thanks, chuck P
