All of the sudden all reports in my mdb can not be opened in either preview
or design mode. No error messages, no wornings.
I have copied the file on another computer where it works fine.
I have scaned for viruses,
I have reinstalled MS office 2003,
I have deleted and copied the file again but still with no results.
Does anyone have an idea what this problem might be?
Thanks in advance.
 
Wow, you went through way too much trouble. You should search google groups
first and you might find that you need to make sure you have a default
printer designated in Windows.
 
Hi Michalis,

I too am having the same problem. I posted a very similar question the
other day and received a similar response. I have tried changing the default
printer to 3 other printers installed on my workstation and have had no luck
opening the reports. I was able to find another article in this discussion
area regarding verifying references in Access
(http://www.accessmvp.com/djsteele/AccessReferenceErrors.html) but as I'm not
a programmer, most of it didn't make a whole lot of sense to me and didn't
make a difference when I followed the instructions.

If you are able to solve your problem, please share how you did it as this
is getting more and more frustrating of a problem.

Good luck,
Kim
 
I am getting the same problem and I believe it is due to Access taking
absolutely no notice to what windows has as the default printer. It is
therefore either taking the wrong printer information, or none at all.

So, I think I know what the problem is, but I have no idea how to fix it....

At least I am not the only one getting the problem. Thankfully by database
will work on other people PC's, but as I am the one that built it, it is a
little fustrating not being able to develop it further.
 
Thank you guys for your responce. When I will solve the problem I will share
the information with you Kimmikk and Nixy.
