Access to Adobe PDFs

I have looked at Stephen Lebans' really neat access to PDF thing and it looks
as though I could use this in my databases, however I am not knowledgeable
enough to know how to get it into one of my databases or how to change the
coding to cause it to "print" one or more of my reports let alone cause the
report to be saved in a specified folder.
Can Anyone help me?

The standard way to print a repot in ms-access via code is:

DoCmd.OpenReport "myReport"

To use stephans code, you change the above to:

Call ConvertReportToPDF("myReprot", , "c:\pdfdata\test.pdf", False,
False)

The above would send a report called myReprot to a file called
c:\pdfdata\test.pdf

My users always want to preview Reports on-screen before printing them,
anyway. I have the open-source, free PDF Creator installed as a printer, so
it can be chosen when the user is ready to print a report. They prefer this
manual approach.
