Access 97 need to select Default printer

Ed · Mar 5, 2004

Hi All:
Converted a 2002 database to 97 for use on older computer.
All works fine but will not print or preview any reprts.
Dialog comes up with:
must select default printer to view or print reports.
I do have a default printer selected and it works fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Ed

Try opening the report in DesignView and selecting the default printer under
File ... Print. Then save the report while still in DesignView. The go into
preview mode and try printing.

Thanks, But cannot open in design view any reports. Same message by top menu
or right click menu.

Quite possibly, they are corrupt. Try making anotherconversion.
