How can I run an Access report (against an Access database in the same .mdb)
from a VB.Net program?

Thanks in advance

You must use Access automation to do this (set a reference to "Microsoft
Access ..." on the COM tab in the "add reference" dialog). This requires
Access to be installed on the machine. I've got a faint recollection (right
words?) that there was a (free) component that can execute reports w/o
Access installed. Let's hope I'm right and somebody will post a link (or you
find it on your own).
