Hi,

My name is Amy Vargo. Thank you for using the Microsoft Access Newsgroups.
When you use the Documenter Wizard in a Microsoft Access database, some
objects that are open may produce an error if you try to document them. To
resolve the issue,
before you use the Documenter Wizard, close all open objects in the
database.

I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please
respond back to this posting.


Regards,

Amy Vargo

Dear Amy,

Thanks for getting back on this issue. I did not have any
object window open ( only the default database window)but
still the same error appears.

Has anyone found out what is causing this problem?

I am receiving this error. I have no open objects.

Also, I have both databases on my desktop machine, and I am owner of all files, so there is no permission problem.

I'm using Access 2010, trying to document the front end database when the database is split between a front and back end.

Here are some Microsoft Knowledge Base articles on this problem. None of them are applicable in my case:

An object is open in a window, or the relationships window is open:

An object is open in a window:

Another user has an object checked out (I am the only user of this database on my hard drive):

Also, here is a posting on a forum which describes students in a multi-user environment getting the error. It was fixed when they all god administrator privileges. This is also not applicable to me because I am owner of all the database files and it exists solely on my hard drive.
