I tried Google search, but can't get an answer. My memory must be getting
bad, but I created a database where a popup form is displayed on startup
with the Access window itself minimized (DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdAppMinimize).
This allows the form to look like an application. From this form, I launch
reports in preview mode.

 

My problem is that when I right click on the report to print it, no options
at all appear. Hence, I can't print. I circumvented this by adding a check
box on my form to have the report printed instead of displayed, but I still
would like to know why the right click options don't show. I did link this
behavior to the fact that my form and reports cannot be placed in design
view unless I start this database with the shift key pressed. I seem to have
forgotten why the editing of the database got disabled on startup without
the shift key.

 

Thanks for any pointers.
