I have a database that is access from several computers. On one of the computers the text in the database is huge. It is not because the display setting has huge text (all other applications have normal text). The menu bar is the normal size and some of the reports print normally. But with two of the reports the text is so big that the text box cuts it off while printing. I have looked in the control panel and the options setting in Access and I can not find anything to change to bring the text size back to normal. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Have you checked the Access Font and size settings?

NOTE that these instructions are for Access 2003 and may vary with other versions of Access.



Code:
[LIST]
[*]Select the Tools Menu
[*]Select Options
[*]Select the Tables/Queries Tab
[/LIST]
On the bottom left is a place to change the Font Type and Size.
 
Sounds like their screen resolution may be set differently (800x600??) than the other computers. This would produce results like this. Have you checked to see which screen resolution each computer is using?
 
So upon a little more investigation it turns out that the problem is switching between Access 2003 and 2007. I think the solution might just be to upgrade everyone. Any other ideas?
