MS Access Forum / Forms / October 2005Closing form, closes the application.
I have a simple inventory control application I made by modifying the Access Wizzard generated Asset Control database. It uses the Microsoft Switchboard. I have Office Pro 2000 at home. The application works great in my computer. I installed it in a lap top with Office XP installed. I can open the application and the switchboard displays; but, when I open any form from the switchboard and subsequently close it, I do not return to the switchboard. Access closes entirely! No error messages or warnings.  SignatureSenior Moments What is the coding used to close the form?

No error messages or warnings. I have no coding attached to closing the form. The problem occurs just using the "X" close button on a form because the switchboard form never closes. Normally, I would hide or close the switchboard and reopen it when the called form closes. This application is so small I did not think i needed to add this code. Thanks for looking at this for me.

No error messages or warnings. On the forms that I use, I place a command button which I call CLOSE that allows the user to close the current form and return to the switchboard. On the switchboard the last menu item on the Main menu I use for the user to exit the application.

I am still baffled that it runs perfectly in my computer. When I open access in the lap top, it does not look normal at all. The lap top is running Office XP Pro, Access is 2002. I do not get see any way to convert the application. I think the lap top may have a student version. Could that be the problem?

You maybe missing some references in the Laptop version. 2. Create a new database call it TEST on the laptop do not use any wizards then import your tables queries forms etc from your inventory database and see if you have any problems. 3. Create an Inventory database using the wizards on your laptop and see if it works. SignatureAllan Murphy Email: allanmurphy@unwired.com.au > I normally do to.

Try View, Toolbars and seeing if the Database one is checked. Try opening your database from within Access while holding down the Shift key. This will bypass Startup settings if there are any or try View, Startup and see if there are any toolbars/menus that are disabled (this is with your database open in Access.)
