I have a report that when selected opens a form which has the path where the
report will be saved as a pdf file ( I am using a program called Primo Pdf).
THis location is automatically copied into memory

When I hit continue on the form it opens the primo pdf writer form which has
a Save As location, what I would like to do is somehow pass a couple of
commands to the primo form, from access.

1. Tab (it is 3 tabs) to the save as box and then
2. paste the contents the clipboard into it
3. then hit enter

is there anyway this can be done using access or some script that access calls

thanks
 
that is a good solution BUT it does not allow the passing of parameters to
the report,
 
How are you interfacing with the Primo Pdf?
If you are using the Shell function and Primo will accept command line
parameters, then you can use that method.
 
It acts as a printer
