Re: message: Zoom not available now.

On the "on open" event for a report I have tried a macro using "run
command" with the "zoom75%" option but I still get the message "the
command or action 'zoom75%' isn't available now".

It then says "Use only those commands and macro actions that are
currently available for this database".

For some reason commands that change the report's window size and/or the
zoom level cannot be called in the Open event of the report itself. You
have to add them to the code that opens the report...

DoCmd.OpenReport "ReportName", acViewPreview
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdZoom75

If you are not opening the report from code then you might be SOL.
