changing default view on print preview of report

[cbnewman]

How do you change the default zoom level when you click on print
preview button for a report?

100% does not give me enough detail, and when I click on the
magnifying glass icon, it only takes me up to about %125. I would like
it to show me the report at 200% by default.

Also, is there a way to zoom in on the report design view? I am trying
to micro adjust a report that needs to use pretty small font (like 6
points) and it's a real pain.

Thanks,

Hi

If you are going to be using the zoom for a while you could just alter the
screen resolution to show more.

Or

With report in preview - select zoom then in the dropdown just type in the
zoom you need (anything link 200 - 359 - 17 - etc)

Open the report using a VBA event, i.e. the click event of a command
button:

DoCmd.OpenReport "ReportName", acViewPreview
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdZoom200

I know of no method to Zoom in Design View.
