I tried to open a access 2003 report in design view., but i couldnt open it.
But when i login as administrator i can open that. Is there any security

What happens? Do you get an error message?

But when i login as administrator i can open that. Is there
any security settings i have to change or any solutions?

When you say login as administrator, do you mean log in to windows, or are
you speaking of logging into Access?

No I am not getting any error message. It doesn't open the design view.

If I try using the wizard, after doing all the steps, finally it says
"couldn't create the report".

This is for all the databases, even if I create a sample db1.mdb.

But everything works fine, if I login as my company administrator.

Note: The user of the system, is in the local machine administrator group
account.

Does it work if you log in as a member of Power Users?

well, i tried again after adding the user to power users, but in vain.

It worked after i did some changes in the printer settings.
