Saving reports as MS Word

Folks,

Sorry if this has been asked and answered but I can't locate any previous thread.  When running reports that are based on an InfoMaker object and then selecting File/Save as does not have MS Word listed as an option - although Excel, PDF (and the other usual suspects) are.  Is there a way to enable this?  We have occasions where we would like to generate an acknowledgement from an order but edit it before saving and sending.

Any clues?  Thanks!

    No, unfortunately not directly in the way that you describe.

     

    Your only option would be to do a merge to a Word template. With the Confirmation on screen take the option ‘File’ then ‘Merge’, then navigate to a prepared Word merge template.

    This would create a Word doc which can then be edited.
