Reports

[Kelly McFaul]

Hello,
I have a question, and I'm sure there's a simple solution.
I have a report based on a query and all I want to do is maintain the
page/print settings for the report. I want it to have 0.5" margins on all
sides and print in Landscape mode. Sometimes it will keep the settings when
I open the report, but other times, it reverts to the default settings of 1"
margins and Portrait mode.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Kelly

If you are using Access 2000 this is a known bug and is documented in
the Microsoft Knowledgebase article:
Q245021 'List of Fixed Problems in Microsoft Office 2000 Service
Release 1/1a (SR-1/SR-1a)'
And specifically:
Q240826 'Lost Printer Settings when Name Autocorrect is turned on'

Turn off the Name AutoCorrect feature as a temporary 'fix'.
Then download and install the Service Release 1/1a.
