    Funny happenings with reports saved as adobe .pdf files

    Vertical Labels in Reports

    Thanks for the response Carol but I do not see a Vertical property relating to labels. I am using Access 97, perhaps this is in Access 2000?

    Outputting multiple reports to file

    Is there a way to print mutliple reports (all the same report but based on different ID#'s) with one push of a button?

    Searching List Boxes

    I am wondering if there is a way to search the contents of a list box just as you'd search any field? Ideally, I'd like to use the standard MS Office "Find" window (<CRTL>-F). Thanks in advance...

    Column containing sequential numbers

    I want to add a column to a report. The column is to contain a simple numbering of the records as they appear on the report (1,2,3,...). Is there a way to do this using a calculated field in the query the report is based on?

    There are only two criteria that change. One has 3 possible values and the other has 2. This makes 6 possible variations when combining the two. There are 5 sub-reports on the main report. The main report acts only as a container and has no links to the sub-reports. I am trying not to do the...

    Sub-reports

    Yes that would work, but what I am trying to get away from is creating a large number of reports or queries. Ideally, I would like to alter the "Recordsource" property based on the criteria selected on the form. I am having trouble getting this to work by embedding SQL statements in VBA code.
