Parameters not working with form with Access 2003

We have a simple report that was designed in Access 2002 that is attached to
a query that has a date range parameter. The report works fine with Access
2002. When we upgraded 2 clients to Access 2003, one machine will not
generate the report or any other report that is based on a query with
parameters. There are no error messages or anything, it just won't open the
report either in print preview mode or design mode. What's strange is that
the report works fine on the other machines that were upgraded, and on this
particular machine, you can still run it on Access 2002 which was left on the
machine.

We've tried several uninstalls with and without leaving 2002 on the machine
and nothing seems to work. Any help is appreciated.
 
Is it just a problem with reports with parameters or is it all reports? I
expect your issue is with your default printer in Windows.
 
I have the problem with ALL reports in ALL of my databases (I originally
thought the problem was with only the one database). The database is on the
network drive and all people have this same problem using it. Any thoughts?
 
Duane,

All the reports without parameters are fine.

But your hunch is correct. When I change her default printer, the report
comes up and runs fine.

Is there a workaround for this? Or do we need to try reinstalling the
drivers for the printer or something?

Thanks for the help.
