[AccessD] A better picture?

aaah, seems like snapshot is the only option. i have added an "Export..." button to the custom toolbar to allow the users to do this.  If anyone has a better suggestion I am all ears.

:)

Subject: [AccessD] A better picture?



Hi People,

I have a button to create a PDF from a report.  Then my ever so creative users are taking a copy of the PDF and putting it into power point.  Of course by this stage (3rd generation of mushy PeeCee Graphic conversion) the image is softer than grandma's feather bed and much less comfy.

Is there anyway of turning the Access report immediately into a JPG instead of using snapshot?

As usual, I know you can do this in Excel with charts and the like, 
' ----------------------------
Dim Chart1 As Chart
Set mychart = Sheets("MySheet").ChartObjects(1).Chart
mychart.Export Filename:="C:\CopyOfMyChart.jpg", FilterName:="jpg"
' ----------------------------

or any part of a workbook using code such as:\
Selection.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture"

Is this possible to do in VBA Access?

regards
Darryl.
