Hi all.... Have any of you had any experience with using PPML which is..... "PPML, personalized print markup language, is a widely supported, XML-based industry standard print language developed by PODi. PPML is an open, interoperable, device-independent standard that enables the widespread use of personalized print applications in high volumes." As many of you may know I have been developing and using a database application for many years now based in Access that could take advantage of the above language..... There is however a flaw in my plan..... I know nothing about PPML. My application has always used the standard Access reports to produce printer output but I am reaching the limit of quality and efficiency with this method and need to change. It occurs to me that I could actually store XML templates for my print files in an Access memo field and simply export them as required. The practice may however may be different. TIA Tom Keatley
