automating outputting reports using Office Document Image Writer

M

Mark VII

Greetings --

I'm working on a management reporting database, where I'll need to generate
a slate of reports every week. We output reports using the Document Image
Writer as MDI files for distribution. The quantity of reports is
significant, and the time to run them is also significant. Would like to
mechanize generating these reports, so I don't have to babysit the computer
as much.

Is there a way to output a report to the image writer, and pass it a
parameter for the file name to save the report under? I've looked at
DoCmd.PrintOut and DoCmd.OpenReport, and haven't found a way to make this
work. Alternatively, is there some other way to distribute Access reports
that lends itself to mechanization?

Any suggestions?

TIA...

Mark
