[AccessD] Snapshot Viewer

I have Access 97 installed on another machine, and all works fine, including
the code to create and email the snapshot,
it appears to be the combination of Access 97/2000 and Windows 2000 that
prevents Access 97 from creating snapshots,
whether from a menu or code.
 
Thank you for your help.
 
Tony.

Ahhh...
 
I'm afraid I can't help you there.  I do know it is in a different place in
the menu but I no longer even have A97 installed on my system so I can't
help.  Someone else will though, I'm sure.

Sorry, I am not explaining myself properly.
 
When viewing an Access Report, and selecting "Save as/Export", the list of
available options does not include Snapshot.
 
So it is the creating of the Snapshot that I am having problems with.
 
Regards
 
Tony.

Snapshot viewer from A97 is not built into the menu anywhere.  If I'm not
mistaken, in A97 it has to be run from a desktop shortcut, or have the .snp
extension bound to that program so that the user just loads the viewer when
they try to open a snapshot.  Snapshots after all are files which can be
mailed to someone that doesn't even have Access installed.  Send them the
viewer and they can read your snapshot reports.  A2K simply added a menu
item that opens the viewer from inside Access.

Thank you John for the link.
 
Snapshot Viewer is as already installed, previously it was version 9, so I
installed the Version 8 on your site, with the same result.

Snapshot viewer was not built-in for A97.  It is an available for A97
however and can be downloaded from my site www.colbyconsulting.com
<http://www.colbyconsulting.com/>  by clicking useful files and looking at
the bottom of the list of files.

I have Access 97, and Access 2000 installed on the same machine, with 
Windows 2000. 

The database I have written is in 97, even though snapshot viewer 
is installed and can be viewed/used from Access 2000, it cannot be used 
from Access 97, not even manually. It is not listed as an option. 

Has anybody seen this problem ? or know of some possible solutions. 

Thank you in advance for any help you can give. 

Tony.
