Why don't I have the export option to save as snp file in Access 2

[Guest]

I am running WinXP and Office Professional SP3 and I don't have an option
under export to save as file type .snp. I have tried to add/remove in Office
all of the features that seem relevant but to no avail. What I read is that
it automatically installs with Access 2000 and later; so I don't understand
why I can't make a .snp file. Please help.

Thank you. Now when I go to report and save, the .snp save as type is
available.

Rick, I have the option to save a type snp, but I want it to appear higher
up on the list of choices, to avoid scrolling every time (it is the only
format we use). Can this section of the registry be resorted, and would that
change the order of presentation?

Thanks!

I don't believe it's possible.
