MS Access Forum / Forms Programming / May 2005Runtime Error! when form is opened in design mode
I have an Access 2000 file version application that I like to design on my Access 2003 SP1 machine. Lately, when I open a particular (most of them actually) form in design mode and then hit Alt-F11 to open the VBA editor, this error message displays (the dialog box is entitled: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library): ===================== Runtime Error! Program: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information. OK (command button) ==================== The error also happens if the VBA editor is already open and I try to design the form. Over the last few months, this problem has come and gone. There have been periods of time where I can do a few weeks of development without the problem happening. Now, it has been several days and no change. The machine profile is Win XP Pro SP2, Office 2003 SP 1, SQL Server 2000 SP3a. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Hi Jim I don't know if this is strictly relevant to your problem but I often find if I move a database between machines running 2000 and 2003 that forms or reports can become corrupted and crash the database whenever you try to open them at all. Copying the corrupted form or report from an earlier version of the database fixes this problem.

Thank you for the reply, but this is not (I don't think) the problem because the file works fine on my Win 98 SE / Access 2000 SR1 development machine even after I have been crashing it on the other machine. Any other ideas out there? > Hi Jim > [quoted text clipped - 37 lines] > > > > Any ideas would be much appreciated.

I have the same problems on my config (Win XP Pro SP2 , Office 2003 SP 1)... I tried to reproduce the Alt-F11 (or form design while VBA Editor is open) crash on an empty database. No crash at all... If I try the Alt-F11 shortcut on another form within the same app, no problem... It seems that it's related to a specific malformed form... But How can i find out where the problem is ? Any ideas would be much much appreciated !!! I think I may have solved it. I removed and reinstalled my printer and haven't had a problem since. What made me think of this is that when I tried to print an Access report to my eFax one time, it seemed to break my printer installation. Access isn't very helpful when it runs into errors related to printers, it usually just doesn't display the report with no indications. Hope this helps. > Jim D. a écrit : > > Thank you for the reply, but this is not (I don't think) the problem [quoted text clipped - 73 lines] > > Any ideas would be much much appreciated !!! I tried this on my computer, and at first I just remove the "Microsoft Document Imaging Printer" stuff... I didn't remove nor reinstall my other printers... Miracle ! It works... but why ? Thank you. PS : Some days ago, I opened a new support ticket at microsoft on this subject. They are investigating... I'll keep them in touch with this workaround. It could be usefull for other people. |
