I've got an Access application that runs from a popup form and launches some pop-up reports - this all works fine, but I can't work out how to offer the user a print option for the previewed reports.
The application needs to run in both Access 2003 and 2007, so the custom toolbar approach won't work (or at least I don't think so).
I tried putting a button on the report itself, but the click event doesn't seem to work
I tried putting me.print in the double-click event of the form, but that did nothing either.
(I think setting the thing as popup does something to divert certain event handlers - specifically, the ones pertaining to user interaction - because right-clicking the report doesn't yield the submenu with a print option in it either)
So... how do I offer my users the option of printing a pop-up report preview, without reverting to making the database window apparent?
