Maybe some help... I recently ran into some real bizarre printing issues with Office 2002/2003 on XP machines where none had previously existed with our Access databases. A support tech from Microsoft had me install the GENERIC TEXT printer on each affected computer, then had each user select...

Our Access database reports work fine everywhere but on one Windows 2000 computer, and on this computer, only reports have a problem. Normally, when a report (with currency values) is run, the underlying query asks for "Job Number", then "Part Number", then it runs the report. On this one...

When I added some Access 2003 (Winows XP) machines to our Access 2000 (on Windows 2k)-based database, many of them would not operate some of the Switchboard "buttons" (especially for reports that contained macros). The animation of "click" would operate, but nothing would happen, no form or...
