OK. You're doing reports rather than forms. My fault for reading into your questions. You are correct about the problem with reports. Bryan does a wonderful job at creating manuals. He did the pdf for the BEU and I think it's wonderful. Beyond Grabber 2K in Word, I would have to agree with Bryan that pdf's are the way to go.
