[AccessD] How do you close report in print preview mode in Access2007

My databases (pre-2007) have a custom tool bar with print commands on it. 
In Access2007 the toolbar appears when you click Add-Ins at the top of the 
print preview window.  That's the only way I know to close the report - 
there is no X.

Does that help?
