Create a report snapshot

1. In the Database window, click the name of the report you want to export, and then on the File menu, click Export.
   
   
2. In the Save As Type box, click Snapshot Format (*.snp).
   
   
3. Click the arrow to the right of the Save In box, and select the drive or folder to export to.
   
   
4. In the File Name box, enter the file name.
   
   
5. Click Save.

   By default, the report snapshot is displayed in Snapshot Viewer. If this is the first time you are creating a report snapshot and you chose not to install Snapshot Viewer during Setup, Microsoft Access automatically installs Snapshot Viewer for you.

Notes

• The report snapshot is based on the recordset behind the report, including any current OrderBy or Filter property settings.
  
  
• If the report contains a parameter query, Access first prompts you for the parameter values and then outputs the results.
  
  
• You can also use the OutputTo action in a macro to export a report to snapshot format.
