Buttons Issue with Access 2007 on Vista

[Andre Southgate]

Hi there!

I have a client who has a simple access DB. If he runs it on
XP/Access 2007 no issue, but if he runs it on vista/access
2007, he can't click any of the buttons on any of the
forms!

Could someone shed some light please?

By default, the code is disabled unless the database is digitally signed or
the folder is trusted.

Have him go to:
Office Button | Access Options | Trust Center | Trust Center Settings
and add the folder where his database resides to the trusted locations.

If that doesn't solve the problem, it could be an issue with references:

I had almost that exact problem when I installed Office 2007 on my
Windows XP system. The buttons did not fire always. And some code
that worked before no longer worked for no reason I could find. I
decided the installation was flawed and de-installed. I had
accidently installed it in the same directory as Office 2003. It
added another subdirectory (office11?).

I then re-installed using what I had originally intended - in a
separate Office 2007 directory. Everything began working. I did
nothing else. I have no explanation, but there it is as information
if it happens to help.
