    Saving Report as multiple .pdfs

    I need help saving a report in Access to multiple pdfs. The report runs when I click the “run” button on my form. This button generates a report that is 90 pages long, and is sorted by Ownergroup_DBA. The field ownergroup_dba is on every page, and is what separates the reports. I would like to export this report to 90 different pdfs with the naming convention of “[ownergroup_dba] Premier” and have it saved to my computer. I don’t know VBA, but need to have this completed by tomorrow (of course), and I have no idea where to start! Can someone please help?

    You should check out a pdf distiller that supports office integration

    A PDF Distiller will convert the report into a PDF for you.

    also, is this an option ?

    Thanks for your quick repsonse. I am looking to break up a report with 90 pages, so that each page creates a separate pdf file with a specific naming convention "[ownergroup_dba] Premier"

    ok, is there any way to write the code in access and have this push the reports to files on my computer through the use of my database form?
