    Printing Reports & Send to PDF

    Hi, I am stuck on something regarding reports.

    I have one report that displays contact information of different departments of our company. How can I sort and print by Department and send it to a pdf?



    I am looking to create this functionality through a command button on a form.

    Thanks!

    Set up the report with a query as its record set.

    Create your launch form - and on that have a text box, or combo box, that will hold the department name.

    Then modify your report's query so it uses the criteria from your launch form i.e. Forms!LaunchFormName.TextboxName

    Run that query and then be sure that it only has a single department's records.

    Therefor your report will only be a single department report. For now let's just assume the sort is the same for all.

    When the report renders on screen - then right click on it and select 'Export' (or Email) and follow the wizard the rest of the way to creating the PDF.
