When I created this database everthing was working fine. Now all my reports
open in extremely large font using 24 pages when before it maybe too 2 pages.
Do I have something turned on? I looked at my design and the box font size
is 9. I am at a lost. Any ideas would be helpful.
Thank you in advance

This sounds like a problem with the printer driver.

Access uses the metrics from the printer driver to calculate the layout for
the report. If the driver is faulty, the layout can go crazy.

I have seen this with some HP LaserJet printers, and replacing the drivers
fixed the problem.

If you cannot get replacement drivers, you may be able to change the printer
mode (e.g. from PCL to Postscript.)
 
That was the problem - Thanks
