Default Open Report Action cancelled - 04-04-2011 , 04:14 PM






Dozens of people are successfully using a database developed in Access
2002, but usually running on 2007. A series of pre-programmed reports
are opened in Print Preview with command buttons. Those buttons work
fine on everyone else's computer, but a new user cannot bring up 2 of
the 25-30 reports. As we were troubleshooting, she successfully
brought up the query underlying the report, but she could not open the
report directly from the Navigation Pane; she got the same "Open
Report Action cancelled" message. Help!! Nance

Nance,
I would start with making sure you have a printer assigned on the
affected computer. If you have some code in the OnOpen event of the
Report it would keep you from opening the report directly from the
navigation pane. Stick a break in the button code that opens the
report and step through the process to see if you can find anything.

The printer works with all the other reports; only two of the reports
have this problem. I don't have any code on any events for either
report. The client is hundreds of miles away, so I'm going to try to
talk her through writing a new report with the Report Wizard. The
query works, so I'm hopeful that by writing the report on her own
computer, whatever is causing the problem will correct itself. Nance
