I have an unbound report - which is actually a form for the user to print out if they need one. There is no data on the form.

Here is the code that is run when the Button is Clicked:

'First, I reenable the Access menus so that they can use those to print

DoCmd.OpenReport "TransitionSurveyPaperFormLEA", acViewPreview

When I open the report on XP/Access 2007, it works just fine.

When I open the exact same accdb with a Win7/A2007 machine, the report does not open. If I debug and display the error, a msgbox appears
"The OpenReport action was canceled."

I have other bound reports and those open with XP/A2007 or Win7/A2007 just fine.

Anyone have this problem? It makes me VERY nervous that the same exact ACCDB in A2007 runs differently on different OSs (XP vs Win7).
 
Ok, this was fixed by changing my default printer from OneNote 2010 to an actual printer on my network. Another unrelated post led me to try that.

So, if reports can't be viewed, try changing the default printer... So obvious... Sigh...
