    So here is my problem, (im using Microsoft example so show)
    In Bold Red i want to know if there is a way to place the Title with lets say Buisness name.. if so how?

    <HTML>


    <!--The following token places the object name in the title bar of the Web browser.-->
    <TITLE><!--AccessTemplate_Title--></TITLE>

    <!--The following HTML tag creates a different background color than the Web browser default.-->
    <BODY BACKGROUND = "gray.jpg">
    <!--The following token places all object output inside the <BODY> tag.-->
    <!--AccessTemplate_Body-->
    </BODY>
    <BR><BR>
    <!--The following four tokens create four navigation text buttons that jump to the first, previous, next, and last pages of a report.-->
    <A HREF = "<!--AccessTemplate_FirstPage-->">First</A>
    <A HREF = "<!--AccessTemplate_PreviousPage-->">Previous</A>
    <A HREF = "<!--AccessTemplate_NextPage-->">Next</A>
    <A HREF = "<!--AccessTemplate_LastPage-->">Last</A>
    <!--The following token inserts the text "Page n" , where n is the current report page number.-->
    <P ALIGN = CENTER>Page <!--AccessTemplate_PageNumber-->.</P>
    <!--The following HTML tag adds a company logo to the bottom of the Web page.-->
    <IMG SRC = "company_logo.jpg">
    </HTML>

    I can't find anything about merging data from Access to html template. Is this template part of a web design?

    it is an HTML Template .... to export report to HTML file

    here are some links to hopefully better understand what i am trying to do.

    http://www.ehow.com/how_5652706_crea...ms-access.html

    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ac...005269264.aspx



    I aware of the following, but it does not tell me the method of putting in ACTUAL field names.

    <!--AccessTemplate_Title-->

    Here is an explination.

    <HTML>

    <!--The following token places the object name in the title bar of the Web
    browser.-->

    <TITLE><!--AccessTemplate_Title--></TITLE>

    <!--The following HTML tag creates a different background color than the Web
    browser default.-->

    <BODY BACKGROUND = "gray.jpg">

    <!--The following token places all object output inside the <BODY> tag.-->

    <!--AccessTemplate_Body-->

    </BODY>

    <BR><BR>

    <!--The following four tokens create four navigation text buttons that jump
    to the first, previous, next, and last pages of a report.-->

    <A HREF = "<!--AccessTemplate_FirstPage-->">First</A>

    <A HREF = "<!--AccessTemplate_PreviousPage-->">Previous</A>

    <A HREF = "<!--AccessTemplate_NextPage-->">Next</A>

    <A HREF = "<!--AccessTemplate_LastPage-->">Last</A>

    <!--The following token inserts the text "Page n" , where n is the current
    report page number.-->

    <P ALIGN = CENTER>Page <!--AccessTemplate_PageNumber-->.</P>

    <!--The following HTML tag adds a company logo to the bottom of the Web
    page.-->

    <IMG SRC = "company_logo.jpg">

    </HTML>

    From the second link:
    When you output a table, query, form, or report using the Export command on the File menu and you specify an HTML template file in the Output Options dialog box, Access merges the HTML template file with the .html, .asp, and .htx output files by replacing the tokens (such as <!--AccessTemplate_Title-->) with the following:

    <!--AccessTemplate_Title-->)
    Becomes the name of the table, query, form, or report placed in the title bar of the Web browser
    ...
    So according to this you would have to rename the object before exporting to template. I have seen code to do this. It was one poster's solution to a similar situation with Word or Outlook template.

    so real confession, I don't use access, I'm a Graphic and Web Designer, just trying to understand how to accomplish this.

    So i would explain to the person whom handles access to rename the object? not sure what you mean.

    The solution I refer to uses VBA code to rename object, run export, then renames it back to the original generic name so it will be available for next execution with a different output name. Just don't know if I can find again.

    I found the thread I was thinking of. The solution involves opening a report and setting the caption property of the report. The caption property is used in the SendObject method naming the PDF document. I am guessing that if the caption property is empty, the report name will be used.

    So maybe does not relate to your situation but if you want to see it anyway:

    In your case, if setting the caption property does not work, then I am thinking the object has to be renamed, export to HTML, renamed back to original name. Review
