From: dpinson on 28 Jun 2008 21:07 I have a simple one page landscape report with 1/2 inch margins top and bottom, 1/4 inch margins left and right. They print just fine when set up but do not hold these margins and orientation for he next time I enter the database. Reports are saved with the new margins but it changes anyway. I have several reports in the same database with these same margins, etc and get the same result with all of them. I am using Access 2000. Anyone know what the problem might be? Thanks. -- David

Check to make sure you have applied all the service packs. -- Marsh MVP [MS Access]
From: Duane Hookom on 29 Jun 2008 13:42 Marsh is correct and offers the best solution. To temporarily patch your reports, you can select Tools->Options and un-check all the Name AutoCorrect boxes. -- Duane Hookom Microsoft Access MVP "Marshall Barton" wrote: > dpinson wrote: > > >I have a simple one page landscape report with 1/2 inch margins top and > >bottom, 1/4 inch margins left and right.

Hi Marshall, Yeah, if a bug, that's a pretty major one. Can I get the service pack by searching for Access 2000 service packs?
