I have an error
==========
MSACCESS.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will
need to restart the program.

An error log is being created.
===========

Where can I find the error log and what is the file name?

Thanks in advance.

I've had this problem in Excel before, with much the same error
message. What solved it for me in Excel was to simply 1) move a
control and save the file, then 2) go into code, move some code right
or left; add a blank line, or
do anything to make a simple code change and then save again [Note:
don't enable your macros when opening the file]...then close the file,
start it up again and enable macros and it would "fix itself".

Today I got the same error (for the first time) in Access; so...I went
into design mode on the form I was trying to run; the one that was
crashing. Then I repeated steps 1) and 2) above, saved the "changes",
closed the form, closed Access, and then restarted Access, and when I
opened the form -- walla! all was well.

Why does this work? Don't know, but I'm glad it does :)
