Error Message

[Guest]

Hi,

I am trying to open a report and I get the following error message when I
click the icon. I'm not even trying to print it only to open it.

I can't even get into it in design view. Any ideas?? Thanks

Error: There was a problem retrieving printer information for this object.
The object may have been sent to a printer that is unavailable

Access requires a printer to be installed (even a fake one) for
reports to work. Has the default printer been removed or changed to
something unusual? Is there code or a macro in the report that forces
it to print instead of open in preview?

The only thing I can think of is that I had to change my printer to another
temporarily, but when I changed it back it woouldn't work. I changed the
printer back to the temporary printer and it works. It normally opens up
instead of printing. Why do I always have these sorts of problems?? Thanks
for you help.
