Access 97 may support snapshot creation. If so, create your report as
normally and have a macro write the report to a location as a "SNAPSHOT". You
will need to then redirect the snapshot via URL. If the webuser doesn't have
the snapshot viewer, it will try to download and install in the browser. It's
free and it basically works like ADOBE. You will be able to view the report
on your browser as you would normally would in Access. It's a miracle!!!
Googleit: ASP ACCESS REPORTS or SNAPSHOT VIEWER.
Hope this helps,
