Printing Question

It is possible, but depending on you rpogramming expertise, it may be difficult for you.
Something to remeber is that the database will have to be open at the specified time, or the report will not print. (There is actually a way around this also, but is MUCH more involved.)
On a form (probably your main form), set the Timer interval to 60000 (that's 60 seconds).
Put the following code in the OnTimer event:
If CStr(Format(Time(),"Short Time"
) = "17:00" Then
DoCmd.OpenReport "name of report goes here"
End If
The report will now print at 5:00 PM. If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it? - Albert Einstein![[atom]](/data/assets/smilies/atom.gif "[atom] [atom]")
