I created a table to include a field called documents.
I set it to OLE Object.
Inserted an object (word document or picture jpeg) by browsing to it, and
displaying it as an icon in the query form I have created. When I double
click the Icon the word document opens as you would expect. The problem I get
occurs when I close the document and try to open it again...getting the
following error message.......
"A problem occured while MAIN MENU was communicating with the OLE server or
Active X control."
The only way out of this is to close the database via "Windows Task
Manager" (XP Pro).
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks

PS...can I ask why the "Notify me of replies" never works for me although I
do check the box? I always have to find the posting manually?
