Access 2000 Replacement snapshot viewer

[Eileen]

We used snapshot viewer to view and store our Access
reports. We also used to send our clients the Microsoft
link for the snapshot viewer so that they could view the
report. Now that Microsoft no longer provides this viewer,
what can we do, both internally, and for our customers, so
that they can "view" the report.

We have XP operating system on all our computers and are
running Office 2000.

Thanks for your help.

Eileen,

Since when has this been the case? We also send a lot of
reports as snp files.

Does anyone out there know what is going on? What is the
reasoning behind scrapping this product?

It's not scrapped. MS has pulled the SnapShot app due to security
concerns. We have been advised that they are working on a fix to return
the app to their site as soon as possible.
I've posted the original file on my site for now.
