I'm trying to make my own business cards. I would like to put pictures and
writing on them. does any one know an easy way of doing this? I have a
copier, and printer. I have blank business cards. I sure would like to know
an easier way.

You're probably in the wrong newsgroup for that.  We're all about MS
Access and there's enough headaches in that alone :)

Although you can print your business cards with Access, an application such
as Word would be easier to use.  In Word, set up a two-column table and
insert your pictures and text into each each cell. Or if you are using card
stock, from say PaperDirect, they probably sell Word templates for this
purpose.

Now in Access, a user would start by outputting a report as a two-column
layout with embedded images.  The Northwind db shows you one way to deal with
images.  Producing two-column reports is explained well in the Access
Cookbook by Getz and company.  Access could provide more flexibility in case
your business provides many services and products or if you produce cards for
all of your staff.

Hope that this helps you get started using the hidden power of Access.
