Print attachment content in report

[daveblanch]

Hi all,

I've a database on which files can be attached to records - these could be pdf, doc, xls files.

Is it possible in an access report, to show the detail of the record and the content of the attachment in the access report so when it is physically printed all details of the record and all attachments are printed in full?

Thanks,
David.

Each one of these documents have their own methods of printing which are obviously not native to Access. For Excel you will need to open the Excel document and call the worksheet's PrintOut method, Word has it's own and PDF docs have theirs. So their's no one-fits-all method.

Thanks for the reply.

I don't suppose you know of any example databases that do this that i could take a look at?

Thanks.
