[AccessD] Report printed or previewed

Thank you very much for this ingenious idea, A.D.

Expecting there to be no way, I have now tacked the problem in a 
different way.  Besides, some of the reports I was looking at would be 
only 1 page.

Nevertheless, your answer has given food for thought, and added to my 
knowledge and understanding of the report process.

Regards
Steve
