    Unable to fix error

    <Here> is a gallery of some quick images of my problem. But put simply, when I try to enter the "Print Preview" view, I get an error mentioning an error involving a macro. I have deleted everything on the report one item at a time and I still get the error.



    Attached is a copy of my database. (Not sure if I'm supposed to do this, but I'm guessing some people are hands-on like me.)

    Thanks in advance,
    Alan

    I couldn't find anything either. So rebuilt the report. Did copy/paste of all controls to the new report, runs without error. Guess the original was corrupted. Happens occasionally.

    BTW, don't see any need for Machine History Report Query to be a Totals query.

    Thanks for the information, and quick reply at that. As I am still quite new to Access, how did you copy/paste the report? I tried doing that earlier to fix the problem but I couldn't get the formatting right (with all of the headers/footers and whatnot).

    I just opened a new report object as well as the original, both in design view. I selected the controls in each section and did copy/paste into corresponding section of the new report. I set the RecordSource and all worked properly. I didn't do any formatting.
