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!

  • Ryan,

    Does this mean that SSRS is available for Order Acknowledgements?  We were under the impression that IM was the only possibility - but VERY happy to be proved wrong on that one!

    Do you have a definitive list anywhere of objects within Tess where we're limited to IM?  I know headers and interactive custom screens are but any others we should know about?  Obviously, we'd much prefer to have as much as is possible written in SSRS........
