They have a free 30 day trial. I expect you are getting paid something for
your work. You could spend several hours (or days) trying to duplicate this
functionality which would cost significantly more.

However, maybe someone can point to a cheaper solution that takes less time.
I am not aware of anything. If I were you, search www.lebans.com since
Stephen has the best resources for graphics and forms and reports,....

Good point. I use one of these free pdf creators to send statements to
clients.

thx for u2's advice, actually i'm now using some freeware
to creat pdf format too, but it is impossible to ask
everyone to intstall the acrobat reader.. u know.. if i
can ask everyone to install that.. y dun me ask them to
install the snapshot viewer? that's why i wanna export to
graphic format.. or word format.. in order to let
everyone can view the file without installing any other
program.

This is more of a tangent, and unlikely to be what you need except in a
few circumstances. Specifically, if the "report" in question can be
viewed on a single screen on your monitor. In such a case, of course,
you can simply press your Print Screen key on your keyboard. The entire
screen contents will be saved to your clipboard. It will contain the
title bar and menu bars and everything else. If you have any graphics
program--even just Paint, you can crop what you need there. You can
Paste it into Word and use the Crop function of the Picture toolbar
there, too, although my preference would still be the graphics program.

As has already been stated in this thread, outputting to PDF would yield
the best results. Since you do not agree with this method then you can
use the ReportUtilitie son my site to output the report to a MS Word doc
that will retain all of the original formatting, images etc.
http://www.lebans.com/ReportUtilities.htm
ReportUtilities a suite of utilities with 5 Features:

1) Export to MS Word. Output exact duplicate of a Report to RTF,
including formatting and all graphics. This file can be loaded into MS
Word for limited further editing or inclusion into a larger document.

2) Export to WordPad. Output duplicate of a Report to RTF, including
formatting and all graphics. This file can be loaded into MS WordPad for
viewing and/or Printing.

3) Save Report to Enhanced Metafile format. One EMF file for every Page
of the Report.

4) Save Report to the older Metafile format. One WMF file for every Page
of the Report. This format may be imported by FrontPage as a Clip and
then saved to the Web page as an WMF not a GIF or JPEG! This means about
10KB to 15KB average per Report Page.

5) Print To Fit functionality. Output multiple Report pages per single
output page. 2up, 3up or 4up etc. Printer selection is independent of
the original Report. For instance you could output a Report of Legal
size pages to standard Letter size. Does not require MS Word.

You can download a program called PDFEdit995 and (www.pdf995.com) and it will
allow you to convert a report into a pdf file and then into a jpeg. You can
download the program for free or license it for about $20.

How can I automate the process of creating a pdf of a report using cutepdf
and then also adding it to an outlook email??
So all I would want users to do is click one button that will create a
report, covert it to a pdf and then create an email with an attachment of the
pdf to be emailed.

thanks
