Error - can't open, view or design reports
I'm using Access 2003 on Windows XP. I have never had a problem using the
reports functions before, and all of a sudden today, I go to use my databases and I can no longer use any report functions (New, Design, View). It must be the program doing this and not the databases because it is happening with all dbs. The error message I get when I try to launch a report from a command button is this: "This action can't be carried out while processing a form or report event." When I try to open or view a report from the main window report list, it does not even give me an error message. When I click it just does nothing!! HELP! |

Error - can't open, view or design reports
I thought I would post back here to let anyone who wants to know about this
issue that it is a problem with my default printer. If I change my default printer to any other printer in my list, than my report functions work again. I have deleted and re-setup my print spooler for that printer but still no report functions will work if that printer is the default. I will have to try to look into why that is but in the meantime I keep another printer as my default, then choose the other printer in my print options to print. Hope this helps someone else.

I'm glad my post was able to help someone else. Although I still have yet to
find out why all of a sudden my default printer (which I've been using now for 2 years) would just all of a sudden stop working with Access one day. No one seems to have any answers.
