My database is for a survey. I imported the survey which is a Word document to serve as a backdrop for my report. Then I used unbound textboxes to calculate and reflect the number of responses for each question on the survey. I "programmed" each of the text boxes in Visual Basic. When I preview the report it looks great...exactly the way it should. But, when I print it, it prints each number times two! In other words, if 14 people selected option a, the screen shows 14; printout shows 28! Now, if I delete the Word backdrop document and all that's left are the fields, the numbers print out accurately. I thought if I convert the Word document to a bitmap, that would do the trick. No way...didn't make any difference. There's something about having that document or bitmap in the background that's causing the print function to double my amounts. It's lookin' more and more like I'm going to have to recreate the document in the report with individual text boxes...I hate to have to do that.
