Access Report doesn't retain Page Setup settings (Landscape) on a network
printer.
 
Thank you for the information, however, I turned off the Name AutoCorrect and
the report still goes back to portrait. I am using Access 2000 on a network
printer.
 
After turning off the Name AutoCorrect:
1. Compact the database:
Tools | Database Utilities | Compact

2. Decompile a copy of the database by entering something like this at the
command prompt while Access is not running. It is all one line, and include
the quotes:
"c:\Program Files\Microsoft office\office\msaccess.exe" /decompile
"c:\MyPath\MyDatabase.mdb"

3. Open the problem report in design view, and make a change (e.g. changing
the name of a label). Save. Close.

4. Compact again.

If you are still stuck at this stage, post back and we'll explain how to
export the report to a text field with SaveAsText, delete it, compact again,
and then get Access to recreate it with LoadFromText.
