Hi all,
With the recent postal strikes here in the UK i'm trying to persuade access
to email reports at the touch of a button. I've not been able to figure out
how to filter the report - when i print a report via a button i have it
filtering to just the customer and invoice on the form on screen, but when i
email, it uses the customer details on screen for the email address but
produces a separate HTML file for EVERY customer on the database and
attaches it to the email.
Does anyone know how i can filter it, and if it all possible, make the
invoice appear in the body of the email instead of any attachment?
Thanks guys n gals,
Barry Wellington.

Barry:
As you've found, the SendObject method doesn't support filters. There are a
couple work arounds:
1.) You can use a form and set the report's underlying query to use controls
on the form as filter criteria, i.e. the standard filter by form.
2.) You can set a filter for the report and save it before calling
sendobject (a pain)
3.) You can modify your query to allow you to supply a filter via vba at run
time along the lines of the tip on our web site in the Code and Design tips
area under reports.
Alternately you could move to a totally different way to mail your report,
avoiding SendObject entirely. You might want to take a look at our PDF and
Mail Libray, which would allow you to email PDF copies of your reports
(filtered as well).

it's the easiest!!!

Helpful folks,
Most of my previous experience with DB2 was on s390 mainframe systems
and the optimizer on this platform always seemed very predictable and
consistent. Since moving to a WinNT/UDB 7.2 environment, the choices
the optimizer makes often seem flaky. But this last example really
floored me. I was hoping someone could explain why I get worse
response time when the optimizer uses two indexes, than when it uses
one. Some context:

Hi!
I would like to export some MS-Access reports output to pdf.
However, the only possibility offered by Access (afaik) for me to export
formatted output is snp (snapshot) (I use MS-Office XP Prof. 2002 version).
With formatted output I mean the *exactly* output I produce from executing
my report (information is gathered from an ODBC database).

I am automating Access reports to PDF using PDF Writer 6.0. I've
