    Report PrintPreview is fine, but prints blank page

This in turn runs an append query depending on the report type selected and opens the report in the Print Preview mode. Now the problem I am having is that the data is showing up correctly on...

    Automatic Front End Database Updating

    My suggestion is to always have the Data in a "backend" that way if something goes wrong with the front end you can still access the data. Also doing this allows you to put a front end on each users local computer that connects to a central location where the data resides. What I also do is...

    My solution to this problem was to create an "Update Database" that has the "BE Version table in it (the BE version would be the updated version) and link that to the Database where the FE resides.

    Changing Text Color for Negative numbers using VB Code

    No such luck.. still doing the same thing. I was hoping this would have been something easy to do. In theory what code would you use to change the text color to a different color depending on if the number was a positive or negative number?
