Export Access report to Word

[Datafiend]

Hi there
Is there a way to export a report from Access into Word so that it keeps all its formatting etc. The only option shown is in RTF format.

Thanks for your help.

I've never found a way of doing this. But does it HAVE to be Word? Is the idea that you want to email the report, or save it to a folder as a snapshot? Something like that?

You can install CutePDF (or something similar) free of charge and it allows you to "print" your report to a PDF file. If you have a newer version of Access you can also save it as an XPS file and I think that's pretty much Microsoft's version of PDF

Thanks for your reply Big Pat. Yes, it has to be Word as the person who wants it wants to be able to send it to users for editing then be able to use the Word track changes feature.
