can't print report

V

vbt

i've been working on the same report all day - and virtually out of nowhere
whenever I go to print view I get the message "is not a valid name. Make
sure it does not include invalid characters or punctuation and that it is not
to long.

I've been going through my tables and queries and don't see anything out of
the norm... anyone has any insights?!?!

Divide the problem - does your query run alone? If so, then it is the report.

Query problem - Save a copy with a different name - start removing criteria,
calculated fields, output fields, etc one at a time until it works. Open the
copy and remove the last item, check if it works.

Report problem - Save a copy with a different name - start removing parts,
calculated text boxes, headers/footers, fields, etc one at a time until it
works. Open the copy and remove the last item, check if it works.

Build a little, test a little.
