[AccessD] Access Report to Email

Some browsers have built in support, I believe.  Non-proprietary format.
You can copy and paste from pdf if that is allowed.  Navigation
capabilities in the reader for long files.  Standardization with other
documents.  Use of pdf reports on web pages and in power point
presentations.  Those are the only ones I can think of at the moment.

Charlotte,

Beyond copying text, how is a pdf more flexible?  What other advantages
does it have over a report in Snapshot?

The problem with snapshot is that it requires a specific viewer.  PDF is
a more flexible format and is in demand by our clients, at least.

Hi Paul,

I know that most folks on this list seem to be fans of acrobat, but I
use the Access snapshot format quite successfully.

The report can be created as an attachment easily, it is a very small
size compared to a .pdf, and the viewer is a free one-time download from
MS.  In the emails I include a link to the MS site where the recipient
can download the free Snapshot viewer.

Let me know if you'd like more information or a code example.

Hi All,

I know there once was extensive discussions on free tools to dump report
to 
pdf at time on this list.  Anyone has more recent information on best
ways 
or newer suite of tools to send the results of an Access report by
email?
