I have created a fabulous report structure and it is exactly what I need...now, can I export it or somehow get it into VB without having to re-create?&nbsp;&nbsp;Any help would be much appreciated.&nbsp;&nbsp;I know this is an Access forum..just thought that somebody here might know.&nbsp;&nbsp;Very grateful :)<br><br>Renae
 
Sot on Tips (Click on Lightbulb icon) or Search on thread named &quot;Product Converts Access to VB&quot; in this forum for a commercial product that claims to do this. If you do purchase, please post re: your experience with this product, I've never used it.
