Report page size locked.

[Casey E. Palmer]

Hey all,

I'm trying to figure out a database which I'm inheriting from someone else,
and for one of my reports, it seems that there's a page size problem.

When I try to resize the report from letter to legal under Page Setup, it
won't take.

It also seems to have a minimum width of 13.5" - I've tried condensing the
page items to fit under 13", but it won't let me shrink the page size. I can
EXPAND it without a problem, but no condensing.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you!

One possibility...

There could be objects on the report that don't show up very
well on the screen in design view.

Try clicking and dragging in the far right in all the form's
sections and see if anything that you hadn't noticed before,
gets selected. Things like lines, rectangles, very small
(one-pixel) controls, etc. If there's anything like that in
the area where you're trying to pull the right margin over
to the left, it won't budge.
