Setting "print to file" from code in Access 2000

[Guest]

Due to customer limitations and compatibility issues, I am using Access 2000.
For an internal report, I am trying to program a report to print to a file
for creation of a pdf. I've seen many remarks here about changing the
printer from code and from the report in Access 2002 and 2003, but nothing
related to 2000. Can this be done? If so, what is the syntax and can I set
the print to file options from code as well?

TIA for replies

Hi,
have a look here:
http://www.mvps.org/access/reports/rpt0009.htm

DefaultPrt.zip - will work in any access version

of course - you also need a PDF printer installed

Thanks Alex. Looks like this is going to be harder than I thought, and
potentially more trouble, when the frequency of printing these out will be
little enough that I can just show everyone how to do it manually. I'll look
further at the link you sent me, though. Your help is much appreciated.
