MS Access Forum / Reports / Printing / August 2008emailing Access2003 reports.
I have WindowsXP. My customer wants invoices (reports) emailed. Is there some simple way to do this. I am not technical. Please help, Frank. If you're talking about an Access2003 report, you can generate the report in "Preview" and use the "Send To" option under "File". There, you have several choices as to the format of the file to be sent. If you'll get to that point, you can post back with more specific questions as they relate to the format options provided.

I got to this point and Access sends the report via Acrobat (as a pdf file) to Outlook express. I guess this is OK, but can Access send it to Outlook Express as a Word2003 file (in case my customers don't have Acrobat.)?

The options I see with a sample report are: Rich Text Excel 97-2003 HTML Excel 5 7 text file Snapshot I only have the puff reader installed on this machine, so I assume, at least for the current sample, that a pdf format is not available. My environment is Office 2003 Pro, so that means WORD is installed. So, unless it's a case of one of the Word formatters not being installed, that format isn't generally available.

Your client can download a FREE copy of the "Snapshot Viewer" from Microsoft, if they'd like to see essentially a re-production of what you're seeing on your machine. (Assuming they don't have Access installed or already have the viewer.) http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=B73DF33F-6D74-423D-8274 -8B7E6313EDFB&displaylang=en Bill Stanton > Thanks.

I would suspect it's far more likely that your customers will have a PDF viewer installed than a Word viewer. Also it's more difficult to change a PDF file compared to a Word file.
