Is it possible to I create a table of contents in an acces..

Hi Chris,

Why don't you save your entire report to PDF in one process then save the
parts of the report to separate smaller PDFs rather than trying to split up
your large PDF into smaller PDFs? Saving the parts of the report to separate
smaller PDFs should be relatively easy; all that needs done is to make
appropriate parts of the report not visible when you save each PDF.

Sorry for the late reply. I don't have a product that does that. I know
there are third party products that merge and split pdf files (not sure if
they do it in that manner)?

I would recommend the approach Steve mentioned to have Access control what
gets printed to a pdf.

If you email me more details I might be able to figure out something better.
As you see I don't check newsgroups every day and missed this latest reply
by you.
