I have developed an adp (using Access 2002 Developer Edition on an XP box).
I used the package & deployment wizard to distribute to PCs without Access
installed. This goes fine just as the installation completes successully.

However, I get an odd crash now. On one form there is a subform (continuous
forms) where users can doubleclick on a row to bring up some details. The
VBA code contains one line of code which causes a severe crash (Illegal
operation... Program must now close...) The single line of code is :

docmd.OpenForm "frmMyForm",acNormal, , , acFormReadOnly, acDialog,
Me.OrdreNr

IMHO nothing strange here.

I really don't know what is going on and I cannot recreate on my machines.
Here are some possible leads(?)
- Client machines are all W2K sp4. I have testet on my own W2K sp4 box but
no problem there.
- I extensively use conditional formatting on the form and the 2 subforms
and apparently they are a bit "moody"
- the main form contains two subforms, each in continuous forms mode having
record source set as a parameterized stored procedure.
- all clients are updated to MDAC 2.8

Apart from that I don't have much to go by.

Any ideas out there as to what I should investigate?
 
The exact error message I get is:

Execution of this application has stopped due to a run-time error.
The application can't continue and will be shut down.

btw. The application stays as a process and I must use Task Manager to kill
it before I can restart the application.
