Exporting a report to MS Word

  • 19 years ago

    I have a report in Access97 that i want to export to a word document so i can save it and print it again later.


    On the report there are several text boxes and pictures which are lost when the report is exported, as Access exports to .rtf format and not .doc.


    Does anyone know of a way I can export to .doc, so that i can keep all the text boxes and pictures.

    yeah, thats what i've had to start doing.  which is a pain in the arse, as i was saving the reports to send to another company.

    You can use API functions to do that. But it is even a bigger pain in the arse...
