    Default Save As Export Feature

    I have a bunch of reports and when the user previews the report, the user
    would then like to Save As Export to another format such as Rich Text
    Format. The problem is that the user is working from a .mde file, and
    apparently in .mde mode, the Save As Export feature is disabled. Is there
    any other way I can allow the user to save the reports or is there a way to
    enable the save as feature in .mde mode?
    thanks

      How do you try to do this? There is no "save as copy" command. What do you actually want to do?

    Default Still Doesn't Work After Customizing Toolbar w/ SaveAsExport

    Well, everything you mentioned, I have done. I have made the Save As Export
    accessible to the users on the toolbar, but it is just grayed out when i
    convert database to .mde format. I just don't get it.
    Thanks for your help though.

    Well I use it not only in MDEs, but in the Runtime so I don't know why it's not
    working for you. I use Access 97, but I haven't heard of anything to suggest this
    would be different in other versions.
