As a bit of background, I have been running a very old MSworks program since about 1985 and never found a reason to upgrade. Purchasing a Win7 machine presented a brick wall and I ended up dual booting it but this is a big pain.

After weeks of banging around trying to create a data base similar to the Works one that I use every day, I finally got one that works and I spent hours over the weekend hand entering the whole data base.

As a point of interest, it took less than an hour to learn to use the Works data base but I spent days learning this and I still do not understand it but I won't fix what works.

Now that I have the DB, I am lost trying to create a report that I can print.

Using the Wizard, I end up with a very large font and lose half of the comment field off the edge of the page. The date column is about 3" wide and the margins waste half the page.

I have given up trying to fix this.

Any help will be appreciated.
