Note: the document below was written for the "feeble-minded" user. This works great for us, hope it does the same for you. Also, I just got Microsoft 2000. The new WORD has great converters in it!! It has one that converts the APPX output automatically into something called Unicode and it looks just like the Output is supposed to without the hassle of any macros. This could be another option for you! Thanks, Ryan Ruebusch Hunter Consulting Company --File attached- <> Here is the macro in text form: Sub OPEN_APPX() ' ' OPEN_APPX Macro ' Macro recorded 09/21/99 by RER ' Selection.WholeStory Selection.Font.Size = 7 With ActiveDocument.PageSetup .LineNumbering.Active = False .Orientation = wdOrientLandscape .TopMargin = InchesToPoints(0.5) .BottomMargin = InchesToPoints(0.5) .LeftMargin = InchesToPoints(0.5) .RightMargin = InchesToPoints(0.25) .Gutter = InchesToPoints(0) .HeaderDistance = InchesToPoints(0.5) .FooterDistance = InchesToPoints(0.5) .PageWidth = InchesToPoints(11) .PageHeight = InchesToPoints(8.5) .FirstPageTray = wdPrinterDefaultBin .OtherPagesTray = wdPrinterDefaultBin .SectionStart = wdSectionNewPage .OddAndEvenPagesHeaderFooter = False .DifferentFirstPageHeaderFooter = False .VerticalAlignment = wdAlignVerticalTop .SuppressEndnotes = False .MirrorMargins = False End With End Sub HOW TO ADD AN APPX REPORT AS AN ATTACHMENT This is a great option to get to know how to use, as it will save the company time and money. The following is a list of steps needed to attach a report you run in APPX as an attachment to be faxed. 1) Run your report in APPX. 2) You now have a WORD document in your personal directory called OPEN APPX DOCUMENT.doc. Click on this file. Some on you may get a message about macros. Simply click "Enable Macros" if you get this message. This document will open with nothing in it. 3) Click the "Insert" item on the menu bar, followed by the "File..." option. This will pop up the Insert File menu. Next to the "Look in:" caption, click the down arrow and select "Network Neighborhood" as shown in attachment 8. Then click "Appx", followed by clicking the "print" folder. 4) You will now see everyone's initials. Click on the folder with your initials. At the bottom of the screen that follows, you will see an option called, "Files of Type:." Click the down arrow and select the option "All Files (*.*)" as in attachment 9. This will show you all the print files in your print directory. 5) Click on the file you want to insert as a fax. 6) This will import the print file into WORD for you. 7) At this point, press the key combination "Ctrl+Shift+o." This command will set up your document so that it is legible and printable. 8) This is extremely important: At this point you want to select File from then menu, then "Save As..." Make sure you do not select Save!! 9) On the Save as menu as in attachment 10, click on the "users on 'Applications'". Then click on the folder with your initials. Rename the file in the "File name:" block to something that matches what your report is for and make sure the "Save as type:" is "Word Document (*.doc)" Click Save. 10) When you want to attach this file, follow the above instructions. It will be located in your own personal directory that you just saved it to. 11) When you close the Word Document, it will ask if you want to save changes to OPEN APPX DOCUMENT. Say NO!!!
