I use access 2007 to run a 2002/03 access database in compatibility mode.
When I run it in 2002/2003 I'm not able to save a report to pdf format. Does
anyone know of a possible reason?
 
They added the save to pdf in Access 2007. In earlier versions most people
either printed to a pdf printer driver and controlled it through code or use
Stephen Lebans print to pdf sample code.

So depending on how the pdf file was created would dictate how to
troubleshoot it.

Does it work on other people'c computers running just Access2003, if so
check for missing printer driver or stephen lebans dll files.

HTH,

It does not. Everyone is going to be upgrading to 2007 though so I'll run
the reports through my computer until then. Thanks.
 
As a temp fix you could always just buy a little pdf printer driver like
win2pdf and have people print to pdf
on machines with Access2003.

Just a thought,
Mark

Not just for Access, but in general, I use the freely downloadable PDF
Creator open-source printer driver that I obtained from
http://www.sourceforge.net, and it works very nicely for me.
