RE: [MS_AccessPros] PDF

Lon,
I do have access to Acrobat Pro. I viewed your example. I have not yet
hooked a field in a .pdf or word document to a data set in Access. I will
have to read up on that. I am guessing I need to run a query to sort the
data and then hook the document to the query some how.

Thanks,

Bill Singer

Do you have Acrobat Pro? This program allows you to take an existing form &
place text boxes for fields over existing areas of the form. Here's an
example. http://www.tpfreight.net/TP%20BOL.pdf Acrobat Pro allows saving as
a Word document. You can then insert merge fields from your database. Or
you can skip the PDF part, scan it into Word, do the insert fields
procedures, etc. Word 2010 allows saving as a PDF if it has to go back as a
PDF. Just one idea.

I have a database that tracks a bunch of insurance policy information.

One of the insurance carriers that we work with requires us to fill out a

specific form quite often. All the information is in the access database so

rather than hand writing the form and copying all the information out of the

database I recreated the form in Access and I have the form auto fill. It

saves a huge amount of time.

Now the company has change the form and this new form will take hours to

recreate. Is there a way to put a .pdf on a form and then put fields right

on top of the .pdf? It will save me hours.

Thanks,
