Printing from a switchboard

[Guest]

I would like to be able to print a pre-created report straight from the
switchboard of my database. I have limited knowledge of macros and coding in
access.

The built-in switchboard only has a few functions available. Ther eis a
built-in function to OPEN a report, but not to dump it straight to the
printer.

This is why most folks build their own forms with buttons and then code the
buttons to do what they want.

The SBM has an option to preview a report.
Is that what you need?

I have a boat load of SBM information here if it helps:

If you want to send a report straight to the printer without
previewing it from the Switchboard you will have to use some
other options. See this specific area for two alternatives:
