cannot access reports and form code crashes access

Okay,

I read thrhough the boards and I'm stuck. At work I have Office 2003
Professional and SP1 applied. When I open ANY db, including the Northwind
sample, two things happen.

1) The report design button doesn't open the report. If I try to create a
new report I get nothing either. NO error msg, just no response.

2) If I go into a form and go to the code button, the VBA editor launches
and immediately crashes with a C ++ Debug library error, that display no
error info. Abort, retry and ignore all just close the app.

I have tried: uninstalling and reinstalling office and studio.net, I've
unchecked the Autocheck options, and compacted and repaired the db's but
because this happens on EVERY db and the same dbs work at home, I believe
it's a generic access problem.

I'm running XP SP2, Visual Studio.net 2003 and Office Professional 2003 SP1

So, please help!!!!
 
Stevie,

As a bit of wishful thinking I'd check to see if I have a
default printer installed. If so, try another printer (it
doesn't need to really exist).

Well, further reading through the boards and this response confirmed it.
Thanks Terry. I cannot leave my functioning printer as a default. I have to
leave my PDF driver as the default then select the printer at the time I want
to print.

Odd, but worked around!
