Hi,

I want to set up a report to view in print preview as default, to make it as easy as possible for the end user. I've set the default view to Print Preview, but it still stubbornly opens up in Report View. I have an old database where I achieved my goal, and I've checked every setting in the report properties, yet the new database still fails to work. I've also checked all macros, queries and forms etc, and I can't see anything I might have missed??

Is there an issue with this function, or is it something simple??

Thanks in advance,

Mark.

You have to change the code that opens the report to open it in print preview:

DoCmd.OpenReport "Report Name", acViewPreview
 
Thanks very much Bob,
