Default Does your report ever change over time?

Continuously, over time, the mailing labels report that I set up changes
from 2 columns by so many rows, to just one column. Started with my Win
98 computer using an Epson Inkjet printer and continues with my Win XP
(different computer) using the HP laser printer. The only thing in
common is the Access 2000 program and the Access file.

I created this one report in December 2005, and all was well. Just
opened it again, and it is only one column, instead of 2. Yes, I will
delete this report and recreate it and it will do the job fine for the
next week or so as I need it. But when I open it again in May, the same
thing will happen. It has been this way since 2001, when I first started
and have decided to try and find out why.

More curious than anything...

Any chance you have Track Name AutoCorrect checked "yes" in the
Tools|Options|General? There was a bug in that causing print definition
problems (depends on which version of Access).

Wow, I took a course on Access in College and we never touched this...
Thanks!
