A weird one


I have a DB of about 10mb on a server. I can print out reports fine on my computer, and so can another one of my team members, however about 4 other ppl in the team have Access97 freeze on them when they try to print out from my DB.

This seems weird as all our pc's have the same hardware specs, and yet I never have a problem printing out. Again I wouldn't think the size of the DB would matter, even tho the server is pretty crappy.

I guess I just want to know if this is an Access 'thing' and if there is any settings I need to jiggle on the other pcs in order for them to be able to print.

NB the actual DB runs fine up to the point of printing on the painful puters.

Any hints, commisserations would be appreciated.
 
Firstly I would check the references on each pc and make sure they all are registered the same.

I would check to see which version of MDAC you're running.

I recently had a similar problem running MDAC 2.1 vs 2.5, causing certain forms to not load.

Hope this gets you started
