I have a report I would like to save as a Word document. When I save as rich text, and open it in Word, the check boxes for the yes/no values are gone, along with the pretty lines and boxes I had on my report in Access. Any suggestions on how to save the Access report to a format I can email to other people

Thank you very much

An age-old dilemma. Actually, the Snapshot format is wonderful for sending
to people. It's very small file size, full color, all lines & graphics and
cannot be edited.

Downside, needs the viewer installed to read it.

Another option is here:
http://www.lebans.com/ReportUtilities.htm
ReportUtilities a suite of utilities with 5 Features:

1) Export to MS Word. Output exact duplicate of a Report to RTF,
including formatting and all graphics. This file can be loaded into MS
Word for limited further editing or inclusion into a larger document.

2) Export to WordPad. Output duplicate of a Report to RTF, including
formatting and all graphics. This file can be loaded into MS WordPad for
viewing and/or Printing.

3) Save Report to Enhanced Metafile format. One EMF file for every Page
of the Report.

4) Save Report to the older Metafile format. One WMF file for every Page
of the Report. This format may be imported by FrontPage as a Clip and
then saved to the Web page as an WMF not a GIF or JPEG! This means about
10KB to 15KB average per Report Page.

5) Print To Fit functionality. Output multiple Report pages per single
output page. 2up, 3up or 4up etc. Printer selection is independent of
the original Report. For instance you could output a Report of Legal
size pages to standard Letter size. Does not require MS Word.
