How do i get a report to print automatically (Using Timer?) at the same time every day? I have a form that stays active all the time and am currently printing the report from a Command Button.
Thanks in advance! :)

if its an access report you can send the report (or a macro that runs the report and closes the app)as an icon...
(or a macro that runs the report and closes app) to the windows scheduler and set it to run at any intereval you like.

simply right click on the icon...be it report or macro and choose create shortcut....it will go to desktop by default

then point the windows scheduler to it.

this way no need to keep app running.

 
oops
sorry for the double line

"or a macro that runs the report and closes app"
