I have finally converted an Access 97 database to 2000.
However I cannot run any nested Macros. When the running
Macro comes to the step that runs another macro I get the
following Error.

You can't carry out this action at the present time.

You tried to run a macro or used the DoCmd object in
Visual Basic to carry out an action. However, Microsoft
Access is performing another activity that prevents this
action from being carried out now.

For example, no actions on a form can be carried out while
Microsoft Access is repainting a control or calculating an
expression.

Carry out the action later.


Any suggestions, I have tried the methods described in
Knowledge base articles 224340 and 225946

Thanks
John
 
Try recompiling your 2000 db. Most likely there are some references that are
missing in the converted 2000 database that need to be set or unset. If
there are, compiling the db will find them. Or you can check your reference
settings first and then run a compile.
