Chart Orientation and Formatting in Access Reports

Greetings,

I am encountering a very strange formatting issue when creating a
report in Microsoft Access 2003. The issue is that when I place a
Microsoft Office Chart 11.0 object onto the report and move it to
different horizontal locations on the report a number of very odd
formatting changes are made to the chart object.

To summarize, if I place the chart on the far left-hand side of the
report it displays as I would expect it to, but as I move the object
from left to right on the form (and then preview the report to see the
changes) the spacing between items in the chart seem to increase (ie.
spacing between chart legend and graph and title are increased) and the
thickness of the borders in the chart increase as well. I have tried
this with a blank chart and the same issues arise. When I try to orient
the chart on the right side of the report (where I want it) the chart
formatting is so contorted that it is no longer distinguishable as a
chart.

Has anybody come across this issue and, if so, where can I start to
look for a resolution?

Thanks
Matt
