I have a strange problem in an Access 2003 application that I have been
working with since last summer. Well, actually longer, since the application
has been running under Access 97 since 1998 and I created it back then. It
was converted to Access 2003 in december last year without any problem.
For the last two weeks or something a very strange problem has occurred. But
only occassionally. And mostly also on computers other than the one that I
use for developing. What happens is that sometimes forms with subforms won't
open, reports won't open, forms won't open in design view. I am the only one
that works with the .mdb file. At work or at home. All the users only get an
..mde file.
During Easter I had the ambition of doing some work at home but could not
since the copy of the .mdb file that I took home on a USB memory did not work
as it should. Tables and questions open ok. As do forms but only without
subforms from the application. However no forms open from the database
window. Reports don't open either. The same file works ok though at work.
About the same thing happened about a week ago when I used a laptop for
demonstration. Reports did not open at all. Very frustrating.
If anyone has any idea why this happens I'd be very grateful. I'm sort of
lost. I'm not at all sure it's a security issue but I don't know what it is
if it's not about security. Hope you have some idea ... Thanks.
