Is it possible to email a record in form view?

Is it possible to be in form view and hit a command button that will enable
the user to email the record to themselves/other people for authorization?
If so, how??

sure. You could open a report based on the same recordsource as the
form, and then pass the recordID in the open event of the report and
then use send object to e-mail it...

Thanks for the reply. It sounds pretty easy but I am REALLY green when it
comes to any of this stuff. (I'm in the middle of my first Access
course--online-- and this is well beyond the scope of what I'm learning).
How (exactly) would I do it?

Linden you are quite knowledgable and I appreciate your addressing the
(silly) questions I've been asking.. Unfortunately I don't understand how to
do this. Thank you for your patience!
