using a PDF with Access database

[Guest]

I am attempting to create a PDF to enter data and i want the data to enter
directly into an Access database. Does anyone have code that will guide me
in creating this.

I have asked this question of the Adobe people in reverse, i.e., can you use
an Access table to populate the fields on an Acrobat form pdf. They say "Not
Really". I would be interested in Microsoft's reply to our questions.

You would have to use a 3'rd Party PDF library. The one I use does support
creating PDF's for data input but you still would have to supply the Access
interface to the library. It all could be done in Access VBA though.

I use this library in my ReportToPDF converter project on my Web site. It is
truly an excellent PDF library that I can highly recommend.
