Saving a Report

[soupy1957]

Ok,
Got the program done, (thanks to you terrific folks), and I'm putting the finishing touches on the report.
I will need to print out the report, but I will much prefer to e-mail it off as its own file....
How do I make the report it's own file, and keep it segregated for e-mailing?

(and a second question for extra credit: Is there a "Cover Sheet" in the templates, that I could use? Or do I have to create one?)

This is what I use, saves the file automatically with a sequence # using the program name, can be pdf or rtf. Email as attachments.

This is the first "program" I wrote "officially" for a production part that needed a First Article.

This plate with 500 holes, generated 48 pages of data. I never was sucessfull at creating the .pdf (took too long and I had to leave), or the hard copy.

The RAM was insufficient in the HP PC that came with the machine, to give me a hard copy, in any reasonable timely fashion.

The RAM and Video Card provided are woefully undersized for the task.

God help me when I have to do a 12-page print for a more complex part!!
