Hello,

I have an Access 97 DB with quite a few reports...
One I am working on now is causing grief.
Every text box I add to it (including those from Field List) has a massive label (font size 48 Grey) but a "normal" text box.

Just means I have to resize each one...annoying.

Any help would be appreciated

Bring up the report in design mode.
If the tool box tool bar is not open open it.
Select the text box tool by clicking on it.
Go to the standard tool bar and click on propeties.

What is displayed is the default settings for that tool for that report. Adjust as desired and close the properties box therby saving the default values.

By the way you can do this for any report or tool you want.

Good Luck
Happy Computing
