Access report on the back - Help !

L

luis.a.roman

Have a report that is displaying on the back of a form. Why? Is there
anyway that I could print preview the report in front of the form?

I'm confuse...please help me put the report in front of the report.

Your guidance will be appreciated.

Are you saying that the report is printing on the wrong side of a piece of
paper? What does this have to do with a form? Are you feeding a paper form
into the prints and having it overprinted by an Access report?

Please explain further.

What I'm saying is that I when I do a print preview of a report, it
displays on the back of the form that I use to triger the report.

Hopefully, this help.

I think what you mean to say is

.... it displays IN (not "on the") back of the form ...


I understand you to mean that when you preview the report it is hidden
behind the form that you used to open the report.

One way to handle this is:

In the code that you use to open the report, add a line to set the
form's visible property to false.

Me.Visible =False

In the report, use code to like the following in the report's Close Event

Forms!YourFormName.Visible = True
