print form to html - all records in results set (Read 425 times)

	My client wants to "print form to html" but he wants to be able to print the search result set. For example if his search results are 15 records. He wants to end up with 15 different html files. And he wants the html files name = LastName FirstName fields on records. ie Ellis Judy.html Of course, I have given him a button to "print form to html" for each record. But he wants it automated for all the records plus give the filename too. Any help would be appreciated.

	Have a button to print the report, but then have it continue and rename the file to LastName & " " & Firstname.htm. The trick will be how to know the name of the original file. You could print it to an empty directory, get a directory listing written to a text file, read the text file and parse out the filename. Then you can do the rename, and move the file so the folder is empty for the next time.

	When I have to do stuff like this, I do it in a Mass Update and use File I/O to create the files.
