Hi guys, another screwy problem with an installation has reared its head. We've been beating ourselves up for 3 weeks on this now, needless to say, the client is not amused. In all that time, I thought we had an error in our code, am beginning to think that's not possible.
Client previously had Off97 on which our App worked fine. Off97 machine died, new machine installed with WinXP and Off2003. Client is 600 miles away. Computer guy installed our programme against instructions in C:\Documents & Settings\[usename]\Application Data\ ...etc ...etc We converted the Acc97 version to 2002-2003 version. We checked references on client machine, none missing, all the ones ticked here on development machine match those on client machine. Project is compiled. Programme halts with the following message "The expression After Update you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: You can't go to the specific record. VBA encountered a problem while attempting to access a property or method. The problem may be one of the following. - reference missing - an expression is misspelled." The break point is when trying to set focus on the subform with the following code Sub cboLocationID_AfterUpdate() ' Find the record that matches the control. Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "[LocationID] = " & Me![cboLocationID] Me.Bookmark = Me.RecordsetClone.Bookmark Me![cboLocationID] = " " Forms!frmLocReadings!cldsfmLocReadContainer.SetFocus Forms!frmLocReadings!cldsfmLocReadContainer.Form!cboSelTable.SetFocus End Sub The application works perfectly on two WinXP/Off2003 machines we have here. The ONLY things I can think of now is - Security settings on client machine - They have some other Access version on there as well (what was that Font issue?) - The installed directory is causing the path to the object to exceed 256 characters and somehow halting the programme. Guys, I am stuck and in a bad place with this now.
