Report Margins Will not Change

[Fenella]

Hi All,

Scenario = win XP pro, Access 2002, db from an older
Access 2000 machine.

Approx. 20% reports have come across with Bottom margin
set at 6", right margin 5.5", so a one-page report prints
across 12 pages!

When I go into the report in design view and pick file,
page setup I can change the values of the Top & left
margins fine, but when I tab out of the bottom or right
margin boxes they change right back to 6 and 5.5
respectively.

Happens in several of the databases in a similar fashion,
only difference I could find was a landscape report where
the Bottom margin was stuck at 5.5 and the Left margin at
6.

Any ideas will be most greatfully received!

Hi Fenella,
I am having similar problem. After upgrade, left margin
won't change below 2.5 as it reverts immediately to 2.5.
It will however increase which is not at all acceptable.
Also, have seen page layout reflected as portrait even
though the selection is landscape. Unfortunately I have
no answer.
