ID: Q178192
|
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Access versions 7.0, 97
SYMPTOMS
Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.
When you print or preview a form or report whose Picture property is set to
a file, the result may be incorrect. The picture may not be the correct
size, and it may not be properly aligned with the data. For example, this
problem can occur when you use the Form Wizard to create a form, and you
choose a style that sets the Picture property to a .wmf file associated
with the International, Dusk, or Clouds style.
RESOLUTION
Set the Picture property of the form or report to a file in a different
format, such as .bmp.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Access versions
7.0 and 97.
MORE INFORMATIONSteps to Reproduce Problem
- Start Microsoft Access and open the sample database Northwind.mdb.
- In the Database window, click the Forms tab, and then click New.
- In the New Form dialog box, click Form Wizard. In the "Choose the table
or query where the object's data comes from" box, select Shippers, and
then click OK.
- On the first screen of the Form Wizard, add all of the fields in the
Available Fields list to the Selected Fields list, and then click Next.
- On the next screen of the Form Wizard, click to select Columnar, and
then click Next.
- On the third screen of the Form Wizard, click International for the
style, and then click Finish to create the form.
- On the File menu, click Print Preview.
Note that if you are using Microsoft Windows 95 or later, the picture
fills the page and is centered; however, if you are using Microsoft
Windows NT 4.0, the picture is not aligned with the data, and its size
is not correct.
- On the File menu, click Print. Note that on the printed form, the
picture is not aligned with the data, and its size is not correct. The
problem with the printed form occurs regardless of whether you are using
Microsoft Windows 95 or later or Microsoft Windows NT 4.0.
