Hi JTRauenbuehler,

You don't mention what version of Access or Acrobat you're using; however when you convert an Access 2003 or Access 2002 file to PDF, Access reports, tables, queries, and forms are converted. When you convert an Access 2000 file to PDF, only reports are converted.

Also, sometimes two steps may be involved to create a PDF from Access:
First, select the object in the Access file to be created as a PDF then click the PDFMaker button.

Hope this helps,
Lori
