Reports come up 'zoomed down'...

I have an application that is running on several different machines. On one
of them, whenever a report is viewed it appears as it would when you click on
a report to make it smaller. As a result you always have to click on the
report after it is displayed to enlarge it. I couldn't find an access setting
anywhere that controls this. ANy idea why this is happening?
 
Can't imagine why it only happens on one machine unless they have an Access
setting that is different to all the others...

In any case, you can set the Auto Resize property of the report to 'No'.
Then set the size of your report (open it and do it if you like) then close
it, you should be asked to save it. It will now open at the size it was when
you saved it!

WHere is this property? I don't see it in Report Properties or when I look at
Page Setup or Print Properties. I only see this property for Forms. I'm
running Access 2000, so maybe it's only in newer versions?

That user probably clicked a save button after the report
was zoomed out.

You can open a report unzoomed by using:

DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdZoom100

right after the DoCmd.OpenReport line in whatever procedure
you use to open the report.
 
Is is happening with all reports on the machine. I'd rather not have to run
that command everywhere in my appl where I open a report! The machine this is
happening on is a terminal server - all others the appl is running on are
laptops, and none of them have the problem. It seems like it has to be an
access setting.
 
It does sound like some kind of setting, but I have never
heard of such a thing happening to every report in Access.

Since I am unfamiliar with TS, I will assume it's the cause
of the problem ;-)

Sorry I can't help, maybe someone else will have a useful
idea.
 
Thanks for the replies. I'll get it figured out sooner or later (I hope).
