Please advise.

This usually happens because the reports cannot find a printer, try changing the default printer to a local printer. The last time this happend to me I installed a dummy printer , namely a Microsoft Office Document Image Writer as default and then I was able to open the reports.

I have a need to open a report in design mode immediately before opening it
in preview, to change the Minimum and Maximum scale on an axis on a chart.
This results in a flash of the report in design mode just before it is
opened in preview mode.
Is there any way to open it in design mode hidden?

Hi,
I have an invoice which is being printed on two different trays. This
is being done by some simple code in VB, and it works.
However, my report goes into design mode in order to change the
settings for the printer, and this locks the system for new users to
enter and a restart of the database is the only solution.
Is there a way to avoid putting the report into a design mode when
printing from 2 different trays, or is there...

I must be missing something, but I have a report that when it is opened
programmatically as a Preview, there is a limited toolbar which
prevents the ability to edit the design, among other things. However,
if the use presses the <ESCAPEkey, it automatically reverts to Design
Mode.
How do I prevent this?

Hi
I am writing a tool to extract form, report, properties to a
XML format for further analysis (cross referencing etc) using Python.
Reports and Forms can be accessed using AllForms, AllReports
and DoCmd to open them in design mode but
Although there is a collection "AllMacros" there does not seem
to be a way using DoCmd to gain access to the macros collection.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
