Hello,
I am having a slight problem with one of our computers. We upgraded to Office 2003 this week and now one out of a good few computers will not let me open any Reports in either design or preview. I have the following checked off in the References (which is the same on every other computer.):
-Visual Basic For Applications
-Microsoft Access 11.0 Object Library
-OLE Automation
-Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.1 Library
-Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library

If anyone has ever come across this or knows how I could fix this I would greatly appreciate any assistance.
Thank you
 
Check your printers and make sure you have a default printer set up.
 
We do have a default printer set up. I came across this problem when we were trying to open a report from a command button and we kept getting an error message that the action had been cancelled.
 
Try unselect a default printer and then re-select it. You should also make sure you have the latest printer drivers. If this doesn't work, check the references in the troubled computer. Apparently you already know where to find them.

Can you create new reports?

I can create new reports. I will reselect the default printer and see what happens.
 
Hi Duane,
This worked. I would have never even thought of this. Thank you so much for your help.

Thanks John for your help also, I really appreciate it.
