The solution involves defining a window and then previewing the report in that window. Try a search on "print preview top" You will see several matches going back to 1998.

(Which I set to .F. before executing the Report Form instruction), and ShowWindow as Top Level Form . I believe it has to do with the ShowWindow property, however, if I don't leave it as a Top Level Form, when my form is called, it appears behind the calling form. How can I get around this without altering the ShowWindow property (if that is in fact my problem)?
