Are you wanting to prevent the user from zooming or do you want to get rid
of the auto resize when you open the report in preview mode? If the latter,
open the report in design mode and on the Format tab of its Properties
sheet, set Auto Resize to No.

Thanks for your help Wayne.

Wayne:
Everytime I open the database in report mode, the report opens with the zoom
icon as the mouse curser. I am not able to disable this the zoom and edit
any page in the report. The only thing I am able to do is resize page, I am
not able to edit the text. I would like to diable this action by default if
possible and be able to edit the document from here.

I don't want to prevent the user from zooming. I just want him to also be
able to edit the text when he opens in report mode.

Thanks for your Help.

Bobby

It is not possible to select and edit the text in a report. It is there for
viewing only.
