procedures that run from the code listed below:
-----
Report Open
Report Load
Report Activate
Report Got Focus
Detail Paint
....
Detail Paint
Report Unload
Report Lost Focus
Report Deactivate
Report Close

If you open the report in Layout or Report view, the section events won't
run. They do run in Normal and Print Preview.

If the report's Open event doesn't even run, perhaps it's something like
this:
a) You don't have the database in a trusted location.
b) You don't have the event property set.
c) You need to decompile.

Post back if you need details.

Thank you. 'Print Review' worked. Now I can't help but wonder what the
'Report View' is good for and why it is the default view, since it doesn't
properly display the intended results.
