I have created some reports in MS Access that look just fine;however, I need
to share them with users who dont have MS Access and want to view the reports
in MS Word. My problem is that not all of the text is showing up on the
converted MS Word document, even though its there in the MS Access report..
How can i get all the MS Access text to show up in the RTF converted MS Word
document?
 
Hi Betsy,

There's no really satisfactory answer. Here are some possibilities:

1) Use the Report Utilities at www.lebans.com. This is vastly better at
getting the layout of the report correct than the standard export to
RTF.

2) Export to Snapshot format. This requires users to install the free
snapshot viewer.

3) Distribute the reports in PDF format (after creating the files with
PDF-making software such as Adobe Acrobat, CutePDF, PDF Creator...)
