Internet Explorer 7 causes Access XP to fail on loading form with embedded web browser control

J

Jon

I have an Access XP database with a form which displays a web page on
loading. Prior to downloading and installing Internet Explorer 7 this worked
perfectly. It still works perfectly on another computer on my network which
does not have IE7 installed. But when I try and open it using the PC with
IE7 it crashes and closes the program. I'm about to uninstall IE7 but if
that doesn't work are there any more ideas?

Thanks.

Jon.

I'm not familiar with this specific problem, but I would install IE7
and then recreate the form with the latest webbrowser control (which
comes with IE7)

I've got an A97 app with a web browser control on it that runs
without problems with either IE6 or IE7. It was created on a Win2K
box with IE6.

But what happens when I distribute the form to people who haven't upgraded?

Anyhow, I solved this problem by uninstalling IE7, but another problem
remains -- I can no longer open an Access file via a shortcut but only via
the File menu within the Access program. This also seems to date from the
installation of IE7.

Suggestions please?

Thanks,

Jon.
