Access 2000:

If I export a muti-page report to an Excel workbook can I force the pages go to independent worksheets in the workbook? If not, is there a way to do this? I have 6 reports that I need to end up a 6 worksheets in a workbook. If I were to put them into a report with 6 sub reports, will the subreports show up as worksheets if I set page breaks?

I know this is odd, but I am hoping that someone will have run into a similar situation.

Thanks in advance for the help!
 
Yes, I have done this. The excerpt from the Transferspreadsheet Action below explains the requirments.

Microsoft Access creates a new spreadsheet when you export data from Microsoft Access. If the file name is the same as the name of an existing spreadsheet, Microsoft Access replaces the existing spreadsheet, unless you're exporting to a Microsoft Excel version 5.0, 7.0, 8.0 or Excel 2000 workbook. In that case, Microsoft Access copies the exported data to the next available new worksheet in the workbook.

The worksheet tab is the exported file name.
