When using a db in Access 2003 in the Vista environment I cannot print a
report or query. For example I open a query and then File-Print, I do not
get a print dilaog box.

Any help appreciated.

Stupid question. Do you have a default printer specified? Do other
programs print fine?

Thanks for the help. Yes there is a default printer, and I can print in all
other aaplications. Not only am I unable to print, but I cannot open a
report in design view.
Thanks again.

What happens when you change the default printer to another printer?
Is that report pointing to a specific printer?

Or try installing another printer such as PDF Creator. (Open source)
and change the default printer to it?
