Microsoft Access XP obvious permissions issue

P

It's very frustrating being an administrator in an environment where I have
multiple users using the same windows XP computer.

I have an access database that the users use all the time, and I installed
the app, and tested it and it works fine logged in as administrator. One of
the users log in, and the app doesn't work!!!! They're getting that bogus
-214..... error that doesn't really tell me what it is. I know this is a
security issue, but the user is in the administrator group, I even went as
far as giving him permission to the directory the app lives in, and
farthermore gave him permission in the registry for all microsoft software.

Making the users administrators to the local machine isn't enough anymore!!
What can I do to make all the apps work for all the users!!! I spend WAY too
much of my time with issues like this and I'm desperate for an answer. HELP!!

No I don't have access user level security in place (that I know of).

I can log in as local administrator to the machine, and I run a report in
the app and it works. There's a visual basic code that changes the
orientation from portrait to landscape.

I log in as any other user, including the domain administrator and I get:

-2147467259 (80004005) method orientation of object _Printer failed. When
trying to run the same report.

I finally figured it out. For some reason it's the printer. When I changed
to a different default printer it solved the problem. Thanks for your help
