From: RedHeadedMonster via AccessMonster.com on 16 Dec 2009 11:38 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 -- Message posted via http://www.accessmonster.com

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.
