options for printing report - Microsoft Access / VBA

David B

I have an app used by a number of single users. For printing invoices and
statements some users like to use their own headed paper while others are happy
with the header generated from the user detail table. I have 2 versions of each
report, with or without header.
I would like to store the users choice in the user detail table in the be which
will make upgrading the fe much easier.

Any thoughts on how to deal with this. I guess I need something behind the
print buttons which selects which report according to what is in the user table.

TIA
