Hi Jim, I think I am missing something here. The PDF reader can make a text file, but if the data is columns and rows of dates where every so often a column will be missing a date, the text will shift the next date to the left. Thus after awhile you can't tell which date belongs to which column. Are we talking about two different things ? Thanks.

Just select a file with the appropriate extension 'pdf' and your are good to go... no add-ins or nothing. That can be easily done in code. One line I believe; DOCMD.... If you are talking about creating PDF files through Access, that is also fairly straight forward but does require a bit more code and a free third party app: PDFCreator.

And access to a computer with access 2003. Is there any ADD-IN that can be used with PDF files ? Thanks.

Printing to that printer, will create a file that will open in another Office tool that has OCR capabilities.
