Hi;
I have a report containing a text box bound to a Memo field in its bound
table.Even when i set its Text Align Property to Distributed,I cant align
its text to both left and right.(Its fonts are of a Right To Left
language).It seems Distributed text align would not work with other
languages and causes to align text to left.In word we can simply do this
using Shift+Enter.
For this reason,Im looking for a way to export this report to MS Word and
print it there.Is this possible thru code?
Thank you in advance for ur help.
 
No code necessary.

Open your report. The toolbar should include a button for exporting to
either Word or Excel.

Thats fully true.But for our amateur users,that dont have access to Access
Toolbar and MenuBars,its better to have a command button to do it for
them.Can you help me write this code snippet?
Thank you for your attention and help.
 
You can use the Following:

DoCmd.OutputTo acTable, "tblBillingInfo", "RichTextFormat(*.rtf)",
"MyExtract", False, "", 0
or create a macro using the outputto action.

You hadn't mentioned using a custom toolbar. So how about if you add back
in the <Send to Word/Excel> toolbar button on your custom toolbar?

way to use a button,i wd do that.Thank you Jeff.
