Printing reports in MS Access from a C# Windows app

[Matt Sogla]

I was wondering if it is possible to take a canned report ( on an
Access database (Access XP version), and then be able to write a C#
application that will make a call to the canned report in Access and
print it (just as you would print the report while in Access)? If so,
could you give me an example so I could follow the syntax. Printing
from a C# application isn't as graceful as going into Access and just
running the report and printing it. Any ideas on how to make this
work so the users don't have to learn how to open the report in Access
and print it? Just trying to make users lives simpler.

Create an Access.Applicat ion object. Then Application.DoC md.OpenReport
etc to print the report.

Tom -
Do you have any examples of this or is there any HELP related topics
that demonstrate this?
