Does anyone know if there is a WEB site which lists the differences of
MSAccess between the U.S. and Germany? I have a database which was created
in the U.S. and sent to Germany to be used, but not everything works there.
Such as a graph which needs to be previewed doesn't work there. I'm
wondering if it's because I created the scale programmatically in inches and
the German version may only understand millimeters. Any ideas?

Thank you,

Sarah

I don't know the answer; but I would recommend that you get from them the
specific version info of both their operating system and their version of
Office/Access.....just the fact that it is in Germany isn't enough....

The operating systems (XP, Win 2000) and versions vary from 2000, 2002, 2003
with different service packs and not one of them will preview this report.
Yet here in the U.S. I have the same variety of OS's and versions and all can
preview this report. I'm thinking it's because in the code I use inches to
define my graph and maybe their regional settings don't recognize inches.
I'm not sure. I just thought maybe there was a WEB site which could give me
some ideas on how to troubleshoot. I do appreciate the help. If you have
any other suggestions, they would greatly be appreciated.
