I have a very unusual request.
I need to be able to generate reports and save them as TIF
files, with full programmatic control. The application will
provide the filenames. Each page of the report will be saved
as a seperate file. All the user should have to do is press a
button to generate the TIFs, without having to "touch the meat"
of viewing the report, choosing a file path/name, answering
prompts, etc.
The end client (of a client) needs TIFs rather than PDFs. TIFs
use little space, for one. There do exist facilities (such as the
non-programmatic Adobe Acrobat) that save reports as PDF files.
I need TIFs; but if the best that can be done is a programmatic
PDF exporter followed by a PDF to TIF converter; it will have
to do.

hi Blaine,
couldn't you just print to Microsoft Office Document Image Writer,
having set
Properties>Adva nced>TIFF ?

Access does not have a native capability to save Reports in TIF format. All
the people working on report converters that I have seen have, in fact,
concentrated on PDF. That is, I am sure, because of the widespread
availability of Acrobat readers for free. Perhaps you might search for a PDF
to TIF converter, and cross your fingers for luck.

You can save to EMF see http://www.lebans.com/ReportUtilities.htm
EMF could easily be converted to TIF or may be just as good for your purpose.

Of all the replies, yours has been the most useful.
(But thanks to everyone who replied :) )
I have already made a prototype application from the ReportUtilities code,
which does as I have requested, except that it generates EMFs not TIFs.
This gives me all the programmatic control that I need.
What I need now is a command-line EMF to TIF converter, unless I can
convince my client to use EMFs. Any good (and not too expensive) ideas?

I use IrfanView which is free at least for personal use, and I see it has both batch and command
line options and can do most formats including EMF and TIF.
Google "convert emp tif" will find others.
You really should change over to PDF files. There is a free Report to PDF
converter on my site.
As for converting EMF's or Snapshot to TIF files there is a German Developer
who created such functionality. I'm not sure if he ever released it though.
Check the NG's via GoolgeGroups and focus on the German Access related NG's.

Hi,
I have an MS-Access 2000 application that is connected to a MS-SQL
Server 2000 backend by linking tables through a DSN-Less connection.
No problems at all with that part.
This application executes various Crystal Reports that have their own
built in SQL. These reports have no need for the MS-Access Linked
tables and can function stand-alone against MS-SQL.
