I have an Access data base with a very limited number of
users. Within this data base there is one report,
however, that a number of people could/should/would use.
Is there some way I could write a Visual Basic routine
outside of the data base that would allow someone to run
only this report?
 
Assuming the users will still have Access installed on their workstations,
you can use Automation to produce the reports. Check the following
references:

If they don't have Access installed, I'm afraid you're out of luck.
