I can't email/publish/save_as a report from Access 2007 unless I use .snp. I
downloaded the pdf/xps add-on from MS but when I go to publish or email I get
an error message. It basically says "Can't save to output data to file you
have selected". Then it gives fives "excuses", one being that the file may be
open. Another about having enough disk space. I have plenty. Can you help me
out on this?
Thanks

sorry I thought you wanted a button that when pushed would email a
report.

Your problem may mean

1) The report is actually open ie you saved the report then opened it
in pdf to see if it worked and then did not close it then when you run
it again it can't replace it because it still open in the back ground.

2) When you generate the report you are forgetting something and it is
not closing the file properly. Ie there is no end of file that why it
thinks you don't have enough room.

3) Be careful look at the path where you stored the report ie some
functions in Access (especially when working in third party apps )
still need the old DOS (8 character naming). Strange but true but try
linking to a dbase format file c:\mydata2007.mdb

Don't put weird character in your path name or file name.

c:\myreport@xxx\payroll.pdf

Be careful how you name your files. ie don't rule out leaving spaces
and multiple . in file name which should work but not always
c:\my reports\payroll.pdf or example myfile.10.txt
try
c:\My_Reports\payroll_10.pdf

do not know if this helps.
