Thanks Don, I was hoping to make it pretty intuitive so each user wouldn't have to be trained. You can also right click and close from the shortcut menu, but a visible menu item would be the best. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of McGillivray, Don [IT] Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2008 11:59 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] How do you close report in print preview mode in Access 2007 I don't have or use Access 2007, but the escape key closes report previews in previous versions. If 2007 has retained that feature, maybe you can "retrain" the clients - it was their idea to switch after all . . . -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Doug Murphy Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2008 10:51 AM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: [AccessD] How do you close report in print preview mode in Access 2007 Against my best recommendation a client has moved to Access 2007 so I am forced to use it for their projects. My productivity has gone down the drain, but I am getting there. One thing I can't figure out is how to close a report in print preview mode with the ribbon bar collapsed. In the options settings for the current database I have the Document Windows options set to Overlapping Windows to turn of the Tabbed document display. I want the user to close objects, not just select the tabs to navigate around. When the database is set this way and a report is displayed in print preview mode there is no X to close with and I can't figure out how to create a little custom tool bar or menu bar as I did in previous versions to print or close the report. I am sure there must be an easy way to do it, but help isn't very helpful. Any suggestions, aside from going back to Access 2003 would be welcome.
