ive got a database for records that for some reason isnt working now... it
was done in access 2000-- though im using access 2007... when i initially got
it i was prompted to allow the macro to run and i chose yes... a couple of
day's later ive opened it up and none of the button's and function's are
working ... i put it in form view to test the database fucntion's and nothing
happen's... it's like ive somehow turned the fucntion for live preview off it
that make's any sense... im a complete newby with access ( had someone build
it from rentacoder.com )..does anyone have any idea what ive done or turned
off...
please help...

just thinking out loud....

your 'macro' probably was the prompt to convert to 2007....

I think that creates a new file...if you look around the old 2000 file
should still exist....open it without conversion....

scratch...it say's at the top " file " 2000 access format... still none of
the button's are working... ive turned something off...i just dont know

ribbon and checked everything...im checking macro setting's right now... im
