Documenter needs Description

[Carol Maley]

MS Access does not have all the info I like to see. I need to do a
combination of screen prints and run documenter to get the info. I'd like to
see Name, Type, Size and description all on one line, and in table design I'd
like to see the size as a column instead of having to go into the field
itself.
I realize that I can always change the options on documenter to include
properties, but that makes the report so long that it's unusable for
practical purposes.

Consider running the documenter with all the options you need and then read
how to create your own report with the results at

That's exactly why I designed my own Documenter.
Mine does exactly what you would like. You can find my free add-in here:

Also, here are many more options (including Duane's info) for you as well:
