EXPORT REPORT IN HTML FORMAT

[Dsuperc]

I have to export a report in HTML format.
When I view the report in Access, it looks great, however, when it is exported to HTML, I loose some of the formatting and the alignment goes weired.
Could any one help me.
Thanks

Hey Dsuperc,

maybe someone will come up with a better answer, but I kinda doubt as I've searched on similar topics.

First things first, I don't think there are any quick solutions to this problem. The best way I have found so far is to convert your report to rtf - cut and paste into Dreamweaver (or something like that) - save your page - and then roll up your sleeves and fix all the junk code.

If you were hoping to have a dynamic web page, where you could automatically generate a report, convert it and then post it - I think a better solution would be to use something like Coldfusion or ASP. With them, you create your report and they will always read from your database.

Of course, if you were just looking for a quick and easy solution to getting your report online, you can always convert to pdf. You'll need Adobe Acrobat (not just the reader). Converting to .snp is much the same thing!

Hope that helps!
