Changes from one computer to another

[Tabco]

I copied a database that I have used for years. It has always worked on these
two computers.
I made some minor changes to a form using Access 97 SP2.
Everyhing worked fine except my date field.
When I bring the database up on a different computer this field says Name$.
The original database works fine on both computers. I didn't make any
changes the date field and the copy works fine on the computer I used to make
the changes.
The computer I used to make the changes is running Win2000
The computer I'm seeing the problem is running Win98
Any ideas?

Where does this field say (I assume) Name#? When you are in table design
mode (this IS a 'tables' newsgroup)? When you try to see a value in a
control on a form?

Have you checked the References on the new machine? Sometimes Access loses
track of where it keeps its knitting. Try opening a code module, clicking
Tools | References, and seeing if any are marked as MISSING. If so, uncheck
it/them, note which ones, close/save, then re-open, re-check, and re-save.
Try re-compiling after this.
