After we installed Adobe Acrobat Professional V7.0 we can no longer create,
design or run reports in MS Access 2003 with SP2 under Windows XP.
Everything else in Access seems to work okay.
Any suggestions??
Thanks

Check to see if you have a default printer designated in Windows Control
Panel.

Yes - the default printer is a Lexmark - why would this be applicable?
The problem seems to be in Access where I can no longer design or run
reports (even in Print Preview).
Thanks

A quick search in Google Groups of issues in Access where you can't open
reports in any view would point to the lack of a default printer in Windows.
This is almost always the issue.

Almost certainly the install of Adobe had an adverse affect on your Access
reports. Try re-select a default printer or re-install your printer drivers,
or change default printers.

Thanks Duane but tried various printers (even generic). Problem started after
the installation of Adobe Acrobat Professional V7.0 Can't seem to find a
solution. Uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled Office 2003 but the problem
persists.
HELP!!

Sorry, I can't re-create the problem so it's a bit difficult to
trouble-shoot. Normally all it takes is designating a default printer in
Windows. Have you tried a local printer as the default?
