    Exporting Report to PDF blank fields on some computers only

    Can you refresh the report's datasource? have you tried open-close-open? The fonts are the less likely because the MS Office suite replace those fonts that does not exist in the host. All machines have the same OS and same MF Office version?

    Help creating a pie chart format

    G'd evening, I don't think you need tabs in a report... no one will be able to click on them. What you can do is to run the same report for each one of your employees and try to export all the reports to same pdf file. May be other members come out with a better approach. G'd luck

    VBA SQL insert query

    Yes, you right, i didn't check your code, as just saw the "#", my mistake. Let's see. Why Me.Controls("xxxx" & I)? change all that to the normal reference for the control like me.myday.caption. What is TempVars!tmpUserID? is that a form?

    Find the bad e-mail address

    Are you sending multiple address? if so, you can try to loop through them and every time you catch the error you can use a table, string, immediate window or anything to store the offending address. Or do it manually from your own mailbox and wait for reject address.

    Find the bad e-mail address

    Thanks for your comment Jdraw, you're right the code doesn't check the address existence just if it has a valid structure.
