I need to output a report in PDF format so that I can email the letter (report) to someone. Is it possible to create a report in PDF format? I've looked at the 'Report form' command and you can only output your report to an ASCII file format.

Download the free Bullzip PDF printer driver from http://www.bullzip.com/products/pdf/info.php

Then you can use code like this to create your PDF:

LOCAL lcPrinter, lcDestFileName, loObj 

lcPrinter = "Bullzip PDF Printer" 
lcDestFileName = "c:\temp\ExampleOut.pdf" 
IF FILE(lcDestFileName) 
  DELETE FILE lcDestFileName 
ENDIF 
*** Create the COM object to control the printer. 
loObj = CREATEOBJECT("BullZIP.PDFPrinterSettings") 
loObj .SetValue("Output",lcDestFileName) 
loObj .SetValue("ShowSettings" ,"never") 
loObj .SetValue("ShowPDF" ,"no") 
loObj .WriteSettings(.t.) 

SET PRINTER TO NAME (lcprinter)
