The setup: Multiple computers using an adp file to access a sql 2005 database. Most don't have a pdf distiller. An access form (plain form, not crystal) is created that needs to be saved as a pdf.
The only way I can think of is send a request from access to the sql server for a web page. Something like: "http://sqlserver/generatepdf.php?id=123"
I'm trying to avoid the web page 'middle man'. Is there a way to generate the pdf in T-SQL? Anyone have any other ideas. I'm not looking for code, just methdology ideas.
Thank you
