Send Report by eMail

Aceess 97. I need to send reports by email. The reports received do not look
the same as sent. Is it possible to send the report so that it looks exactly
as , or if printed, looks exactly as if printed from the database? Someone
suggested that I should send it as a .pdf file. How do I do that?

A pdf file, or the built-in Microsoft Snapshot format are the only options
that will preserve the appearance of the report.

Thanks Rick, but how do I 'do' the pdf file from Access?
help much appreciated, knowing that it can be done!

You can't do it as part of your code. Access allows only the file types
listed. Snapshot is the closest. The only way to send a repot as a pdf is
to use a pdf writer and manually send the report to it.

Microsoft is kinda funny about helping you to use an Adobe format with their
Office products ;-)
