ACC: No Prompt to Save Changes When Closing Report in Preview

ID: Q141109

SYMPTOMS

Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.

If you modify a Print Setup setting while you are previewing a report, Microsoft Access does not ask you to confirm the changes; the changes are automatically saved. This behavior differs from Microsoft Access version 2.0, which prompts you to save any changes you make while you are previewing a report.


STATUS

This behavior is by design.
