I am running an Access 97 database on a Win 98 machine and on A Win XP
machine, the data base runs great with no problems - but the reports do not
print properly on the XP machine - I am using the exact same network
printer - the fonts are installed in both machines - the only problem I am
having is the printing the reports - the view exactly as they would on the
reports (the xp machine fonts are too large) - both computers are using the
exact same monitors - both databases are installed on each machine -
independant from one another.
TIA

Norm:

Haven't experienced that problem on our machines. A couple of things to
try.

1.) Check video drivers on the Xp machine. Make sure that they are the
latest.
2.) Are you using printer fonts rather than true type fonts? If so, try
changing to a true type (or on Xp what is an Open Font)
3.) Of course check for the latest printer drivers on the Xp box.
