SYMPTOMS
You can use the Output To command in Microsoft Access to save the output of
a table, a query, a form, a report, or a module in one of the following
file formats:
- Microsoft Excel (.XLS)
- Rich Text Format (.RTF)
- MS-DOS Text (.TXT)
When you use the Output To command with a report you cannot specify the
range of pages that you want. The entire report is output to the file.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, base the report on a query that limits the
report's output to the records you want. For example, use a query that
limits the records in the report to the top 10 records.
MORE INFORMATION
When you choose Output To from the File menu, the All and Selection
buttons are unavailable (appear dimmed) because Microsoft Access does not
support specifying a range for the output.
REFERENCES
For more information about the Output To command, search for "Output To,"
and then "Output To Command" using the Microsoft Access Help menu.
