Forms in PDF do not persist the data: they allow you print the filled-in form, but that's it. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (no private e-mails, please) "Michelle Marie" <mperron[ at ]garnethealth.com(donotspam)> wrote in message news:7C56C32C-59EC-49F6-A2F6-A975CC0D59FC[ at ]microsoft.com...

Not directly, but there is an ActiveX control that will read PDFs from within Access. http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/sdk/activex/ You can also use the free Foxit PDF reader which opens incredibly fast (I open a 500 page document in under a second) compared to the Adobe version. Register Foxit as the program for PDFs, store the paths to the PDFs in your database, then use this code to open them: http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0018.htm -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP Free MS-Access downloads: http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com
