Hello,
I am having a slight problem. Every DB I have on one computer keeps
crashing. I open it up and they will stay opened up until code has to
run and then I get the standard "Microsoft has encountered a problem
and must now shut down.....would you like to send a message to them"
box and then access quits. I can force this to happen if I click on
the "Code" icon along the top of the toolbar on the access main
screen. Does anyone know why this would happen to ALL db's opened
(including the Northwind DB). Here is the story on the computer:
I have a dell laptop to which the video card failed. I ordered a used
one off the net and installed it on my computer. Everything now works
great. I also re-installed the OS and Microsoft Office (Office XP).
This is a networked computer. Some of the things I have done are:
1. Reinstall Office
2. Get the latest Video Drivers
3. Get the latest office updates.
4. Put the DB's on the local drive and try and open them
5. Put the DB's on the server and try and open them
All of these things have failed to work. I have heard this could be a
"video card" issue but I'm not even sure about how I would run a check
on the video card. Anyone have this problem before? I also heard
that it could be a permissions issue on the network but I have checked
the permissions (as much as I know to look for) and everything seems
fine. Am I missing some critical update? Should I try throwing the
laptop against the wall ?
Thanks in advance,
John
