strange behavior

[Francois Houde]

computers configuration : Windows XP with Access 2000 or Windows XP with
Access 2000 runtime.

I have develop an application which runs great on every computer except one.
This computer his using my .mde with Access 2000 runtime. When I open my
application my combo boxes are not filling at all. They are all blank.

When I test my application on another computer with the same configuration
(Xp + A2K runtime) it work great with no problem at all.

Any ideas what could be the problem.

Thanks

The most likely difference between computer installations is missing
references. This can manifest as all sorts of faults.

The less references you have, the less likely a problem.

For Access 2000, the only required references (unless you use some special
features requiring others) are
Visual Basic for Applications
Microsoft Access 9.0 Object Library
Microsoft DAO xx Object Library (or ADO, whichever you use)

Other references may be installed by default. Get rid of them.

Reference faults are difficult or impossible to analyse in an mde or in
runtime. However, if you know the reference filenames (Tools, References), I
guess you can check they are present.

You should do the above regardless of this or any particular fault.
-----
Is Runtime service packed? SP1 seems OK to me.
Is that Windows service packed? (not that I know any related problem but there
have been some)
