I have a simple one page landscape report with 1/2 inch margins top and
bottom, 1/4 inch margins left and right. They print just fine when set up
but do not hold these margins and orientation for he next time I enter the
database. Reports are saved with the new margins but it changes anyway. I
have several reports in the same database with these same margins, etc and
get the same result with all of them. I am using Access 2000.

Anyone know what the problem might be? Thanks.

I think that was a bug in A2000. Check to make sure you
have applied all the service packs.
 
Marsh is correct and offers the best solution. To temporarily patch your
reports, you can select Tools->Options and un-check all the Name AutoCorrect
boxes.
 
Hi Marshall,

Yeah, if a bug, that's a pretty major one. Can I get the service pack by
searching for Access 2000 service packs?

Thanks for the response.

A2000 had so many "serious" problems that I never got around
to installing it so I never got into updating it :-)

I think you can start here:

But depending on which updates you have (or have not)
applied, you may have to back track to previous service
packs/releases.
