Page Setup and Paper Size problem.

[Guest]

I am working on a report that was put together a few years ago. After doing
the modifications to the underlying queries and tables that the report is
based on, we needed to increase the paper size or decrease the font and field
sizes. The paper size was set up to letter, which would require the fonts to
be too small in this case. My problem is, no matter what I have tried, it
will not allow me to change the paper size. Other reports in this same
database allow paper size changes (to tabloid or 11 x 17).

Thanks for your help.

Has the problem report be tied to a specificprinter which does not allow
that paper size?

The printer is fine and I use it for 11 x 17 on other reports. I have fixed the problem by creating a new report in design view, then copying over, as section at a time, all of the fields and labels. It then worked fine. Using the analyzer, I found nothing to distinguish the bad report from the good one.

Thanks for your help, and if anyone experiences this, let me know. I think
the report had a bug or something!
