I am unable to create, design or print reports in Access 2003

[Guest]

I have several Access Projects that I have created that have reports in them.
On Some PC's in my office I can work with these reports, and on some,
including my my new PC that I was just assigned, I can not. I am trying to
figure out why my current installation of Access will not allow me to create,
modify or run reports.
It must have something to do with the way Access has been installed or
perhaps, some other program taht is on my PC; for instance; I now have an
adobe Acrobat toolbar along with my other Access Toolbars, I don't have this
Adobe Toolbar in Access on any of the PC's in my Office where I am not having
problems with Access reports. We have tried uninstalling and reinstalling
office, but the effect is the same. I can't create, modify, or run reports.
When I attempt to use the report wizard, I get all the way throught the
screens and then when I click finish, the report is not created, when attempt
to open a report in design mode Access just seems to fail to act, but there
is no error message. When I attempt to reu a report bu clicking directly on
it I get the same no-action. When I attempt to open the report in code I get
a "Open action was cancelled" message.

Can Anyone Help?

You identified a specific difference, the Adobe Acrobat toolbar. Have you
tried eliminating that toolbar, or uninstalling Acrobat to see if that made
a difference? My last version of Acrobat was 3, and it didn't intrude with a
Toolbar, it just installed as though it were a printer.

Have you tried opening any module and on the menu, Tools | References and
seeing if any are marked as Missing?
