Access Reports

Can i run a report created in Access fron VB. If i can how can i do it?

If you're using Access 2000 and newer then you cannot run Access report as stand along - you will need to automate Access:

VB Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
'=======================
 
    RunAccessReport App.Path & "\nwind.mdb", "Catalog"
 
End Sub
 
Public Sub RunAccessReport(strDB As String, strReport As String)
'================================================================
Dim AccessDB As Access.Application
 
    Set AccessDB = New Access.Application
    AccessDB.OpenCurrentDatabase strDB
    AccessDB.DoCmd.OpenReport strReport, acViewPreview
    AccessDB.Visible = True
    AccessDB.Quit acQuitSaveAll
    Set AccessDB = Nothing
 
End Sub

If you're using Access 97 then it should be an ocx out there from a third party to do that.

You can use the same automation techinques with Access 97. That is where I first learned how. (For that matter, you can use this with Access 95 providing you are equipped with the proper references.)

If you take a look at the Access VBA help, there's a DoCmd.OpenReport method which'll help you out...

Oh, certainly. This can be used with any version of Access as long as the refences are OK.
