I have a database that I didn't design. It's from a client and they didn't design it either (and it's rather a piece of crap). So, I apologize upfront if this gets complicated.
Our client is the prime contractor of the client and we are the subs. Using or designing a different database (don't I wish!) isn't an option.
We have a different copy of the database for each of the separate sites in this project and most of the time, the database work "okay". But they get very glitchy from time to time and I have run across a glitch that I can't fix or work around. One of the reports suddenly refuses to show the header page info. This is a new report to me, so it may have already been screwed up when the original data entry person put the info in.
I don't know enough about Access to figure out how to copy that page ONLY from the report of another database, can someone help me?
I tried all of the usual MS tricks, cutting and pasting, dragging (I figured Access wouldn't allow it, but gave it a whirl anyway). All I want is to replace the crappy first page of my report with the "good" page from another database.
