Hi
(Access 2003.)
I have a report that is programmatically output to a rtf document and have a
problem with page length. Whilst the footer appears in the correct place on
the Access Report, it is too high on the page once this is output to the rtf
document, with several lines of white space underneath.
I realised that the report defaults to 'Letter' format, whilst the Word
document defaults to A4 (which is slightly longer). I have tried to change
the report format from Letter to A4 but this is ignored and is not saved
with the report. As a test I tried changing the report orientation from
portrait to landscape and this does save correctly.
I need to distribute this application and need some way to force the report
page size to A4, regardless of client printer settings, so I guess I need to
do this programmatically.
Am I correct in thinking that the different default page sizes are the cause
of this problem, and if so, is there a way of forcing the default report
format to A4 using VBA?
Regards
Robin
