Hi,

I have the following code that will produce this report to a rich text word
document, once the email button on my form is clicked. When the email button
is clicked, it basically grabs the text from my tblComments / comments Field,
and transfers it to a word document rtf format.

My problem is, is that all but a couple of lines of comments can be seen in
my word document when I open it up. However, if i send it to .mdi picture
file, I see all of the text comments. Can anyone confirm if the following
code is right? Do I need to specify any character length for the word
document?

GenerateReportSourceTables
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "rptPrintCallReports", acFormatRTF,
fnToList, , , fnReportFileName, , True
SignOffCallReportComments


Thanks in advance.

The export to RTF option often truncates text. Don't use it for anything but
simple tabular data. Anything with "growing" TextBoxes will exhibit this
behavior.
