First of all, excuse me for my english. It's the first time that I found a serious problem with reports using access97. I have design a report that is 56cm wide. I must print it on a HP plotter. When i try to view the report preview or i try to print it directly, access give me the message that it's not possible to print a report  that is more of 57cm wide. The same message occures if I reduce the report width of some centimeters. When I have done these tests, the format of the paper was 900mm, that is width of the roll plotter (on his driver); if I change the paper format to A4 or A3, than the message doesn't occures but the print is splitted to 3 pages (that is unusable for my work). Is there a solution of this problem? Or access works only with maximum A3 paper format (instead the report design allow you to use 56cm for making the report) ?  
I hope you can help me.
Thank you.

Problem solved!!
If you will have the same problem, I've found the solution:
Access controls not only the report width (less than 22") but also controls that the height of the report must be less than 22". My opinion is that Access shoud not control the paper format, but reducing the height, now the report works correctly.

...Access's mistery...

Bye.
