I am creating reports and seting the print margins at a fraction of an inch. At first glance everything seems ok, but then one or more of the margins changes on its own to somthing like 7 Inches or 5 inches. Does anyone know why this happens and how do I stop it?
Thanks
 
Have you applied the latest service packs for Office? BTW: could you share your Office/Access version?

No, I have not applied the latest service pack. The problem seems to happen mostly when I upgrade an earlier version database to Access 2003. Once the change happens, I can not change the margins back and the only way to fix the problem is to re-do the report.

Thanks
 
I would check the default paper size and unit of measure in the report. Try other reports, other printers, updated printer drivers,...
