    Access 2007 databse running on Win 7 doesn't display reports properly in Win 8

    Access 2007 database running on Win 7 doesn't display reports properly in Win 8.



    Although the text boxes have the same font(Calibri) and font size (11) as the original, the data no longer fits in the box and is truncated on the report.

    I've fixed the report in design view and "viewed" the report with data. Everything looks good - Saved the report. Closed the report and associated form that runs it. Re ran the form and the report is still out of whack (to be technical)

    Any ideas?

    That sounds buggy. Is there a full version of access on the W8 machine? Maybe you can make a copy of the report and place some new controls on it to try and duplicate the problem.

    The only thing I can grasp for now is you published an ACCDE file with a newer version of access than what is on W8 machine. But, I would expect different symptoms.
