I have a 300 page report that I print to one large Adobe PDF document. This
report is broken into five departments. I would like to print from Access to
five separate Adobe documents based on department value, rather than have to
manually break up the big Adobe file. How can I do this?

I would think the easiest answer is to make five reports (one for each
department) and run them separately.

Yes, I could do that. I'm hoping to find a way to automate the print to PDF
function so that I do not have to either print it five times or break up the
Adobe document into five new reports.

Rick:

Stop by our web and look in our Developer Tools area for the PDF and Mail
Library for Access. You can pretty easily accomplish what you are trying to
do using our library. There are many code examples within the help file to
get you going. Hope that helps.
