[AccessD] Reports to Excel

EXACTLY how I do it.  Turn on the macro recorder, do the action (border /
background / whatever) turn off the macro recorder, view the code.  After
that what you do depends on how you want to do the automation.  The easiest
way is to create a "template" workbook and create the macro in it, then just
call the macro (really a sub IIRC) when you are ready to execute that code.

As Jim mentioned, you might want to clean up the code, but you don't have
to.

<format><cells><border>. Use the macro recorder in Excel to create the code.
You can transfer the resulting code to Access, add an Excel application
object, clean up the code if necessary and you are good to go. The macro
recorder doesn't generate the prettiest code but it is great at pointing you
in the right direction by telling you which objects to use. HTH Jim Hale
