    Print to PDF

    I've set up my forms so the users can print a copy of the currently
    selected record in a form.

    Now my users have made this request: "When printing a single record
    from the database, it would be nice to be able to print to pdf and
    specify a location to save the record."

    I don't think there's a way to do that without creating a report
    version of the form... is there? You can't just output a form record
    to PDF, can you?

    In Access 2007 one can choose the External Data tab on the Ribbon and
    then the [PDF or XPS] button.

      Cool, I didn't realize that. But by default it exports every record in
      the form. Is it possible to (a) output only the currently selected
      record to PDF format, and (b) do it in VBA?
