If you don't want to pursue creating your own application to do this, consider using one of the 3rd-party Report Managers listed at http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html.

At least some of them, including my [Visual CUT|http://www.milletsoftware.com/Visual_CUT.htm] software can be called via a command line api. This would allow you to request the export to pdf by specifying the report to process, the export format, the export file path & name, emailing options, etc.

Thanks Ido,

I'll see what's out there.

Ideally, I'd like to, eventually, be able to develop my own apps.
