I developed a form in access, but for some reason, it prints blanks and it
shows up as blank in the print preview. I have tried all the properties I
can think of with no success. The form seems to be set an should print onto
an 8.5x11 sheet. I adjusted margins no success. Not sure why this form is
coming up blank

Forms are not designed for printing, but for on-screen interaction with data.
Consider opening the form in design view and saving it as a Report - which
*is* designed for printing.

What is the form's Recordsource? Where does it get its data? How are you
opening and printing it?
