Default Save Access report as MS Word document

Is there a way to export or save an Access report as a Word document. I have
a user that has no Access report modifying experience that would like to
experiment with the appearance in Word. We can save the report as a PDF, but
I've never figured out a way to get into Word. I don't want to devote a
great deal of time creating any sort of mail merge operation.

Any thoughts or ideas are appreciated!

You can save the report as a .rtf document.
In Report Preview, click on the Office Links tool Button (it has a W
icon) and choose Publish it with Microsoft Word. The report will be
saved in your My Documents folder.

You could also use code. Look up the OutputTo method in VBA help.

Thanks for the info! I never noticed that office links button, but that
works just fine for what we need!
