我想使用VBA生成PDF文件,我找到了一些工具,但我不确定它是否支持以表格格式生成。或者是否有其他第三方工具(免费)生成PDF格式的访问表单?

Stephen Leban的PDF导出库非常适合它的时代,但那是多年前的事了,现在根本不支持图书馆,你可以通过快速访问his web site看到它。幸运的是,您现在可以使用Access的内置PDF导出功能。这是一个例子:

DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "SimpleReport", acFormatPDF, "C:\Users\Paul\Documents\PDFTest01.pdf", False

我相信这适用于Access 2007及以上版本;它绝对适用于Access 2013.这是a link to an MSDN forum post,其中包含更多信息。

根据您要导出的内容以及您正在使用的VBA应用程序,您有几个选项。

如果您要导出访问报告,那么这很好(并且免费!)http://www.lebans.com/reporttopdf.htm

对于大多数其他内容,您可以使用PDF打印驱动程序并将要导出的任何内容推送到“打印机”。这里有许多免费和商业选项,所以谷歌是你的朋友

安装PDF打印驱动程序并使用它打印出您的工作表。例如,我安装了PDFCreator。

ActiveSheet.PrintOut ActivePrinter:="PDFCreator"

警告:PDFCreator是免费的,但0.9.7及更高版本是bundled with "tormentware"。我有清洁工version 0.9.6。当然你也可以安装其他一些PDF驱动程序。

在Access中创建PDF的最佳方法是首先使报表处于访问状态。

原因是,当您首先在Access中生成报表时,您将完全控制报表在PDF中的显示方式。

假设您知道如何在Access中创建报告,以下代码将帮助您将该报告转换为PDF,然后允许用户相应地保存PDF。

Dim strReportName = "RptYourReportName" ' first quote in the name of the report you already created in access

Docmd.OpenReport strReportName, acViewPreview 'tell access to open up the report
Reports(strReportName).Visible = False

If Reports(strReportName).HasData then
    Call ConverReportToPDF(strReportName,,"Give_Generic_Name.PDF",True,False)
End if
DoCmd.Close acReport, strReportName

以下是将转换报告的函数 - 只需将其复制到VBA代码的模块部分即可。

希望这会有所帮助!!
