automated PDF file from reports

[griffins69]

We have many reports we manually save to PDF files and then print. This can take hours just saving to PDF and printing.

Once a report opens we touch our PDF icon on our tool bar(I believe this was downloaded). Then it saves to PDF as if it was printing( i guess this is the norm since we have PDF printer setup.


I would like to save(pdf format) and print theses reports automatically(button) on form.
The name I would like the pdf to be is(reportname-datestamp).


I'm having issues because of the PDF format.

Are you using Access 2007? Microsoft has a PDF add-in you can download and install to easily output reports in the PDF format.
