Ok...

Question.
I have a database with several tables in it.
Each table has several fields, some in excess of 30 fields.
I have put VERY detailed descriptions for quick verification.
NOW, I would like to print out each table, listing out JUST each field and it's type and description.

This way, as I am building a form based on that table, I can just look at my print out and see the description for that field.

Help if you can.

ps I left out some important information for anyone who thinks I should try something different.

First off: This is a Front-End Back End Database
Secondly: I have roughly 21 Tables with an average 20 fields per table and they are all related, excepting two or three tables.

So, I understand there might be a better way of organizing my database, I am just looking for a way to print out the details of each table.

OH...and I know there is a Documentor. But unless you know something I don't, I end up with a page per field when I do one on tables...I need like a page per table.

Thanks in advance!
 
I think it's a real pain in the bum that you can't print out the design view details for a table - it would be really hepful if you could - without running the documentor and ending up with a 200 page report. You can't even copy and paste to Word.

I've taken screen grabs in the past and used them. That' causes problems if there are a lot of fields but it's better than nothing.

If anyone else knows how to do it, I'd appreciate knowing how!
 
Cool!

Thanks Jack I've been looking for something like that for a while. You just saved me a ton of time (money)!!!!!!!!!!!!!
