Hello again experts!
Thanks for all your help in the past - you all are the BEST!
Another VB code question. With the click of a command button - I want to create one big phat PDF that combines the report as the index and adds on all the PDFs that are stored as hyperlinks in the table for each record that shows on the report.
Is it possible (I hope)?

Create your report with hyperlinks in it, not sure if you can do that or if the report will have HTML links in it. Then
You can use CutePDF to create a PDF printer or if you have adobe pdf 9 pro then you dont have to download it.

Then check out this website, it has code that you can use to create the actual report and convert it into PDF format.

Lucas911:
So is the link to cutepdf for just creating a PDF of the report? If so, I do have Adobe Acrobat for that. Also, I didn't see code on the lebans website. I clicked on the search button and found a directory that had a zip file of downloading files RTF to GRID and Picturebox to Grid (sorry if I missed something).
I'm looking something more complex. I would like to find VB code for a command button that will combine the Access report with all the PDFs associated with that report into one PDF, HTML file or whatever. The PDFs need to be in the same order as listed in the report (whether that be date, file #, key word, etc.). I have all the PDFs associated with each record hyperlinked in a table in Access if that makes it easier for coding purposes.
So the output looks like the attached with the click of a button in Access - with the report showing first and all associated PDFs in the order shown in the report (in this case - by date) coming after the report .
Is it possible? Is there code out there in VB land?
Thank you for your input.

To add: If there is an easier way do do this (combining the report and all PDFs hyperlinked in the table into one viewable and printable file). I'm open to alternatives to creating one big PDF.
Thanks all.
