PRB: "Setting" of "Height, Width Property" in Help Misleading
'Article ID: Q132002

Creation Date: 26-JUN-1995

Revision Date: 19-SEP-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Access version 2.0

SYMPTOMS

Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.

A sentence of the "Setting" section of the "Height, Width Properties" topic in the Microsoft Access Help system reads as follows.

You can set these properties using the property sheet, a macro, or     Access Basic. This information is misleading because it does not mention that you cannot set these properties for report sections when you print or preview a report. RESOLUTION

Following the above sentence in the "Setting" section of the "Height, Width Properties" topic in the Microsoft Access Help system add the following two paragraphs.

For reports, you cannot use a macro or Access Basic to set the Height and Width properties when you print or preview a report.

For report controls, you can set the Height and Width properties only by using a macro or an event procedure specified in a section's OnFormat property setting when you print or preview a report. REFERENCES

For more information about the Height and Width properties, search for "Height," and then "Height, Width Properties" using the Microsoft Access Help menu.
