Default Send Access Report to MS Word

I have several cases of sending an Access report to Word for an Admin that
uses them to publish weekly, monthly reports. They have been working without
any problems (over a year) and this week have decided to quit working.

Basically I have a button and then on the "OnClick" event have the following
code:

DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "Extension Requests", acFormatRTF, , True

Heres the kicker, works like a charm on my computer but not hers. I've
checked references on both computers and they are identical.

Any ideas?

Thanx!
RHM

Right off the top, perhaps one of you recently upgraded to a new version of
Access? Or to a new SP release? Or installed Microsoft "updates"? Or ...

I have had what sounds like a similar problem.
In my case I have traced it back to windows7. See my post dated 26th Nov.

I still have not found a proper fix so instead I have added a return to the
end of most of the larger text or memo fields which seems to be working for
now.

If you do find a fix can you post it as I would be very interested.

The 'fix' depends on the cause ...

Can you confirm that all PCs running your application are running the same
version/release/updates of Windows, Access, Word, ...?

If not, update them all to the same ...
