    cannot preview access report

    I have an access application.
    I am calling on the OpenReport method of the DoCmd object to preview a report. I keep getting this error because I don't have a printer set up on the computer.

    Is it impossible to preview an access report if you donot have a printer attached to the computer? The error number I get is 2202

    here is my code
    DoCmd.OpenReport "MonthlyReport", acViewPreview

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    I think so ... I think you do have to have a printer defined in order to print preview ... You could try and establish a dummy printer ...

    it depends on what version of Access you're running. XP doesn't require a printer, but 97 does. i'm not sure about 2000, but i think it also requires a printer.
