Importing one record as a form into MS Word

[eques4]

Hi All

I want to be able to "paste" a screenshot of one record in form view on to a Word document.

I nearly achieved this by doing a simple "print screen" but unfortunately the form is a little too big for the screen so not all of it shows.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Doesn't Paint do this?

download HardCopy, its free, but bugs you to donate money...
it allows screenshots by many many means...save as bmps, print right to printer, print screens by rectangles, windows, anything.

why dont youcopy the form/select all.create a new Report.Paste the form design on the report.when you are done.create a macro button,select >Output To,Down below you will see the Object Type Button choose >Report and it will ask you to fill the name of the report you wanna print At the >Object Name,which in this case is the name of the report which you paste the form.
After filling that,it will ask you to choose the >output format,which in your case is> RTF(rich text format), and ,chhose Yes to autostart.Save the macro button. After that Voila,its done.so when ever you click this macro button
it will show you the form design in Word.But i recommend you to use the Snapshot viewer.which is 100% will show whatever you put in your form.

Many thanks to every one for their suggestions. Could anyone tell me more about Paint, mentioned in BNPMike's reply?

I don't know how to use it in the context of Access.

Thanks

Paint is one of your accessories in Windows. Do print screen then go into paint and do Ctrl-V. Then you can manipulate the image.
