Margin settings keep changing back 2

I've made a simple report up for a label printer, 1.5"x4" labels. I'm not concerned with margins on this at all, and would be happy if they would just disappear completely, but I'm having some issues.

I've found that in its current form, the report looks nice with margins set at .1(top),.1(bottom),.4(left),.1(right). However, these margins seem to only stay set like this for a single print, if I'm lucky. They then revert to .66t,.66b,1L,1r.

What I'm looking for is a way to lock the margins in place for a particular report, or be able to programatically influence them at report runtime. It's frustrating to have overcome a multitude of other hurdles in development and be snagged on a problem like this for a day, that's for sure :)
 
Is this Access 2000?
If so make sure that Track Name Autocorrect is switched off in Tools>options.
 
Hah! It is Access 2000, and it appears that was the problem as well. Thanks much, you just saved me a few hours of banging my head against the wall.
 
In theory(!!!), this is fixed if you install all the service releases for Office2000.
