Access 2k3

[Johan Pingree]

I do not have access (npi) to any of the reports in any of my access
projects. They are listed in the database properties windows. But selecting
any of them to edit produces nothing. NONE will open. I have uninstalled and
reinstalled office 2k3 and it does not fix the problem. I can take those
same access applications over to my laptop which runs Office XP Pro and
those same access application work perfectly fine! I can create and edit any
reports I want to. WHAT GIVES with Access 2K3! Can ANYONE give me a clue as
to what I can do to fix this? I am not insterested in rebuilding a machine
that works perfectly fine. I would rather go back to using the older version
of Office and RETURN Office 2k3 and get my money back!!

Both my desktop pc and laptop have WinXP Pro with all SP's and hotfixes
installed as well as dot Net Framework 1.1 w/sp1. If you need more
information please ask I will give it gladly.


Thanks.

For those that read this comment the solution was to ensure that you have a
default printer assigned. I have FinePrint (www.fineprint.com) as my default
printer which Access 2k3 did not like. Thanks to Duane Hookom for the much
need answer - see his comments in the microsoft.public.access.reports group.

Thanks for the listing your solution. The same thing was happening to me and
resetting the default printer solved the problem.
