Snapshots are used for reporting purposes and are exported from a Microsoft Access database. This functionality was present in Microsoft Access 2003 but was removed from Microsoft Access 2007. This quicknote will assist with installing the Snapshot viewer for Microsoft Access 2007.
The Snapshot Viewer is used to open files with the (*.snp) extension.
