    Printing Subreports Full Size


    My report has 6 subreports shown two across. I have code that prints both the master report and each subreport independently, but the embedded reports have been sized to fit in the subreport container, so they are about 1/4 size. Is there a way to send these to the printer blown up to full size?

    They are full size, as designed.

    What you want to do is programmatically alter design parameters - report Width, textboxes Widths and positions and FontSize, etc.

    God, that sounds nightmarish. This is a bell and whistle sort of thing which I think I'll pass on, but here's something more pertinent. I just had to shrink a bunch of graphs on my form due to the small laptop screens in use here. It wasn't a big deal, but I figure this must be a common problem. I hate to design my forms for the smallest possible screen. Is there some way to read monitor size/resolution and auto resize everything to fit on the screen, kind of like web pages do?

    Not that I know of.

    Had one user with an old computer and monitor that didn't have the resolution of computer the db was designed on. User had to scroll the Access app window to see the entire form.

    I kind of figured that. I've never trield to put an app on the net. That might perhaps make a difference.

    Thanks anyway,
