Button to Export Multiple Reports to Single PDF

[DeMarcus]

I have Acrobat PDFMaker.

In Access' file menu, there is a menu called Adobe PDF and under it, it allows you to merge multiple reports into a single PDF file.

How can I create a button that can do this?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry to be such a newbie, but how do I get them to merge multiple reports into a single PDF?

I feel like the information is there but I'm just reading right over it.

If it's possible, it'll be through the Acrobat API. You can get the source documentation here:

Just thought of something...have you considered using subreports to merge your multiple reports into a single one? Combined with the 'Use Specific Printer' setting, it'd probably be easier than figuring out the Acrobat API...

That sounds much easier and sensible. Thanks!

As an FYI, if any of your reports are dynamic cross tab query reports, they can not be easily merged into one report as a sub-report.
