Formating is OFF when EXPORTING

Hello All,

When I export a report from ACCESS to WORD (etc) or publish it with WORD/EXCEL, the formatting gets screwed up:

Either extra spaces (and a lot of them) appears between texts (i.e. between each text boxes of the report) or the some starting line is "tabbed" more than others are.


Anyone had this problem before? If so, is there a way around it?

Thank you.

HI RiderJon,

Access is GREAT at so much but has, in my opinion, one MAJOR flaw. It doesnt play well with other apps when exporting.

One option is to use SnapShot Viewer. Its free at MS website. Its about the only way to get your report exported without it screwing up.
