embed print button on report

K

kostas

Hi!
I'm new to Access VBA and I would like to know whether it is possible to
include a print button IN a report, i.e. the user will see the preview of the
report and if he wants to print it then he will hit the Print button not at
the toolbar but on the report! (of course the print button will not be
printed as well!!!)

Thanks
Kostas

No, reports are not interactive. Sorry.

You can create a toolbar and assign it to your report and have a print button on
the toolbar.

Thanks, Rick. That's a good idea... I just was too focused on answering the
specific original question and didn't consider using an alternative to
arrive at the desired result.
