I have an access appliation that has been in use for years with very little problems. Only this past month did this bug appear and we need help resolving it. The bug is in a report that is printed once per month. Normally when we run the report it is fairly fast. But this past month it starting taking a very very long time. It takes so long that windows will time out and start printing before access is finished sending data to the printer. This is how it happens. We click to open the report. The report is very slow to come up. When it comes up we can see that there are 250 pages on the report. We click the print button and the window pops up saying printing page 1. It will stay on page one a long time then finally page one will print out, then it will say printing page 2 and it will take a long time and it will print pages 1 and 2. Then 3 and it will print pages 1-3. It keeps doing this till it is finished. So, page 1 will get printed 250 times. Page 250 will only be printed once.
I copied the database to a different computer with a different printer and it did the same thing. I also did a repair and compact database in access and it did not help.
If you win the bid I will send you the database with data. The file is about 85mb so you will need high speed to download it.
