[AccessD] Access 2010 Problem - Exporting a Report (withSub-Reports) to a PDF file

I guess it was the Access 2010 runtime I was interested in figuring out how
to do.  I'm still struggling with this jumping screen problem.  I have been
using the 2003 the Wise/Sagekey combo but if I can deploy a 2010 runtime I
think that would solve the problem.  I don't get the jumping in 2010.

I could save the mdb as a accdb or whatever 2010 uses, create the runtime,
and distribute that.  

Does anyone know if there's a link to a white paper or something that
describes the process?

Rocky,

Thanks for the help.

In your post, you asked "How are you creating your run-time in A2010?"

We only have Access 2007 for development.  

We rename the accdb file to accdr and then open the accdr via Access 2010
Runtime.

I thought that this would work, and it does work fine except for one single
report (The only report with sub-reports).  This report is generated fine.
It appears to cause Access 2010 to crash when we try to export the report to
a PDF file.

All of the other reports work nicely, as far as I know.

Thanks again,

Brad

How are you creating your run-time in A2010?
