    Smile D-Size Report

    Hey all,
    First time posting here.
    I am new to access and was trying to get a report in D-Size.
    I know that access can't go past 22" for whatever reason but is there anyway to go around that?
    I thought maybe to output to word then change printer properties there but I need to make my database as user friendly as possible.
    Therefore, would it be possible to export the to word then set up a macro to change printer properties automatically and print the result?



    In hopes of an answer,
    Mark

    You could have each page as an independent report. Then with code send the pages to printer sequentially. Problem: can't duplex and other user print jobs could print between the outputs.

    I don't know how exporting report to Word would help. Still have to build the report in Access. You could export the data to a Word document or have VBA in Word that grabs data. I have done this kind of data exchange betwen Excel and Access, but not other MS apps.
