in [General]

From: Brendan on 7 Apr 2010 22:37 Im hoping someone can help me here. Yesterday i installed Windows 7 on one of the computers at my work, now when i try and access the database (access 2007 SP2), the forms arent working? All the data is still on the 'backend' of the database which is stored on another computer (running XP). I can still to queries etc and find data, just cant add to it through the forms. Cheers. Brendan.
From: Arvin Meyer [MVP] on 7 Apr 2010 23:19 I run Windows 7 on 2 machines and haven't seen that problem on either of them, with either Access 2003 or Access 2007. Start with the Northwind sample database. Does it work? If not, you have an installation problem. If it does work, there's something in your database that's giving it problems, perhaps some code. Try building a Trusted Location and see if your forms work. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.accessmvp.com http://www.mvps.org/access "Brendan" <Brendan(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C7B07DB9-97E5-49F2-83D2-A78112ED1B91(a)microsoft.com... > Im hoping someone can help me here. > Yesterday i installed Windows 7 on one of the computers at my work, now > when > i try and access the database (access 2007 SP2), the forms arent working? > All > the data is still on the 'backend' of the database which is stored on > another > computer (running XP).

From: Fabrizzio Fernandez on 7 Apr 2010 23:57 Hello. I'm not in the know, but what I think is that you should not use the Windows 7 if it is to your work computer.

Try decompiling it before using it on Windows 7, preferably doing so on the target machine. Change the list of references in the VBA window by adding a dummy reference (you can remove it later) or create a shortcut and add the following options: /decompile /compact /repair -- Sylvain Lafontaine, ing.
