Access 97 running on Win98 vs WinXP

T

Tim Peterson

I recently completed an application which was designed and
tested on Windows 98. The application crashes on Windows
XP. Both computers are running Access 97, and as far as I
know, the only difference is the operating system. The
application crashes on the XP computer when it processes
the following command:

With Application.FileSearch
..FILENAME = "*.dwg"

Why is this happening? Are there known problems when
executing Access 97 databases on different operating
systems? What are the other known issues? Is there
something I can do to resolve this problem? Any advise
will be appreciated.
