For some reason I am unable to display Access 97 reports, even iof the report is blank, i.e. I have not included any fields, labels etc.

The error message displayed is of the Win 98 low level type were it is just a grey box with an okay button. The message is thus:

MS Access

There isn't enough free memory to update the display. Close unneeded programs and try again.

I have tried shutting down all unnecessry progarammes. Free resources are runnning at approx 88%, yet I am still unable to display amy reports.

Any ideas?

Thank you.
 
I believe that I have seem this error when there is a problem with the printer driver for your default printer. Access uses the driver to format reports in Print Preview, therefore, if there is a problem with the driver, there is a problem displaying reports.

Try reinstalling the printer driver, or try installing a generic printer with Windows built-in drivers and set it as the default.

Alternatively, search support.microsoft.com for your error message. I know there are articles about it.
 
Changing the print driver for the default printer worked for me on this issue. I have been trying to solve it for a while.

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
