Pop up before printing report

L

Linda

Is there a way to set a pop-up to appear when the print button command is
selected? Several of the reports will be quite large and I would like to
state this, then have the user select yes to proceed or No to cancel.

Thanks!!

Generally, I have the "print" button open a form instead of the report
itself. On that form, you have your message and then another couple of
buttons. One button prints the form and the other closes the form (ie.
cancels the operation. I would also have code that closes the form in the
click event for the button that prints the report.

You can see something like it in my sample "ChooseReportFromList.mdb",
specifically the "Simple Report Launcher". You can find the free sample
