Dear all,
how can I save/export a form in a snapshot format.
I'm using [DoCmd.PrintOut] to print the form.

Thanks in advance
 
Thanks for your reply but:

1- I want to export a Form not a report.
2- I cannot specify the Snp format while exporting a form.

Any other idea?

Use the OutputTo method:

DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "Report1" ,acFormatSNP, "c:\test.snp", False

So create a report that looks like the form. All you have to do is right-click
the form in the db window and choose "Save as Report".
 
Sorry. Of course you made it clear that you were talking about a form. I
just had snapshot=report stuck in my mind.

No, there's no way to output a form as snp. I think Rick's suggestion is
going to be the best you'll hear.
