"There isn't enough free memory to update the display"

I've been using Access for some time to manage 2 databases and suddenly
I'm getting this error for any report in both of my databases when
trying to preview. These are reports that haven't changed and used to
work fine.

I'm not running any other programs and Task Manager isn't showing
anything that looks unusual to me. Disk space is at about 16 GB free.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Access 2003 SP2

Thanks for your help.

Dave

Also noticed that even trying to print preview table data causes the
same error. I can print preview in all of my other Office 2003 products
without any problem though.

Any changes in video or printer hardware/drivers lately?

FWIW:
- The presence of the word "display" in the error message indicates Video
issues (video memory, video driver).

- The fact that it only happens when you preview indicates printer driver
issues (which could overload video memory if buggy enough).

- The fact that other Office apps seem to work ok makes me wonder if Access
is being pointed to the correct printer (FilePageSetup or FilePrint).


HTH,
