 | Thank you for your response. I tried this code and got an error message saying "class name not in registry: PDF.PdfCtrl.1"
I have Acrobat Professional 6.0 on my computer and most of the people here who will be using this application have the Standard version. Is there something else I need in order to make this work?

 | Thanks. That worked. However it didn't have a method to convert to .pdf. What I want to do with this is convert insurance quotes to .pdf so they can't be altered. But if there is no way to do that I can live.

Hah...don't count on this. They can easily be altered. There are products that specifically convert pdf files to Word (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=convert+pdf+to+word&btnG=Search). Pdf-izing will be an impediment, but not a serious one.

Try using a printer driver ... if you have Acrobat installed, you should have a printer driver specifically for that. Create a report, send the report to that driver. If not, try looking at software such as PDF995 (http://www.pdf995.com) -- cheap -- $10 to register -- this gives you a printer driver that works flawlessly to create PDFs ...
